13.2 Port Grouping
This section introduces port groups and then explains the screen for port groups.
13.2.1 Port Grouping Overview
Use port grouping to create port groups and to assign physical ports and port
groups to Ethernet interfaces.
Each physical port is assigned to one Ethernet interface. In port grouping, the
Ethernet interfaces are called representative interfaces. If you assign more
than one physical port to a representative interface, you create a port group.
Port groups have the following characteristics:
• There is a layer-2 Ethernet switch between physical ports in the port group. This
provides wire-speed throughput but no security.
• It can increase the bandwidth between the port group and other interfaces.
13.2.2 Port Grouping Screen
Define the relationship between physical ports, port groups, and Ethernet
interfaces in the Port Grouping screen. To access this screen, click
