Ethernet Port Aggregation

Ethernet aggregation lets you combine two Gigabit Ethernet ports to improve the aggregated file transfer

speed. Note that Ethernet port aggregation is also referred to as link aggregation, teaming port, and port

trunking. If a device supports Ethernet aggregation, you can use the Ethernet aggregate ports 1 and 2 to

cable the device that supports Ethernet port aggregation to the router.

To get the fastest performance with port aggregation, for wired connections use

Ethernet port 3 for the first computer, and use Ethernet port 4, 5, or 6 for the second

computer, which allows for speeds up to 2 Gbps with port aggregation.The maximum

speed between port 4, 5, and 6 is limited to 1 Gbps.

Note

desktop series and the ReadyNAS RN2000/3000/4000 rack-mount series support Ethernet aggregation.
