Manage Ethernet port aggregation to a LAN
device
Ethernet aggregation lets you aggregate two Ethernet ports on your router to improve
the aggregated file transfer speed. Ethernet port aggregation is also referred to as link
aggregation, teaming port, and port trunking.
Note: For information about Internet (WAN) port aggregation, see Get Multi-Gig Internet
with Internet port aggregation on page 29.
To set up Ethernet port aggregation to a LAN device that is configured for 802.3ad Link
Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), first configure Ethernet port aggregation for
Ethernet ports 1 and2 on your router, and then connect these port to the two aggregated
ports on the LAN device. If you do not configure port aggregation in this order, a network
loop occurs, and your network might be shut down.
WARNING: Do not connect an unmanaged switch to Ethernet ports 1 and 2 on your
router if these ports are aggregated. Otherwise, a network loop occurs, and your network
might be shut down.

If you are connecting a LAN device such as a switch or NAS, make sure that your LAN
device supports 802.3ad LACP.
