24-Port Managed Gigabit Switch 
TEG3224T treats all ports in a trunk group as single port. Data 
transmitted to a specific host will always be transmitted over the 
same port in a trunk group. This allows packets in a data stream to 
arrive in the same order they were sent.   
 
Note
:
 
If an
y ports within the trunk group become disconnected, 
packets intended for the disconnected port will be load 
balancing among the other uplinked ports of the port trunking 
group. 
 
 
3.5.2  Link Aggregation Characteristics  
  Bandwidth Increasing—Trunking allows several ports to be 
grouped together and to appear as a single, higher-bandwidth 
logical link. This gives a bandwidth that is a multiple of a 
single link’s bandwidth. Trunking may also be used in the 
enterprise network to build multigigabit backbone links 
between Gigabit Ethernet switches or to link a bandwidth 
intensive network device or devices, such as a server, to the 
backbone of a network. TEG3224T can create up to 12 port 
trunking groups with 2~16 ports in each group.   
  Load Balancing—Link aggregation is sometimes referred to 
as load balancing, which provides redundancy and fault 
tolerance if each of the aggregated links follows a different
