How to aggregate bandwidth using a VLAN switch
Learn how to configure a Cisco Switch Link Aggregation using the command-line, by following this simple step-by-step tutorial, you will be able to create a new Link aggregation and configure the link aggregation in access mode or as a trunk that allows the traffic of 2. In this article, I'm going to describe how to set up Link Aggregation between two managed switches to provide connectivity, redundancy, and expanded bandwidth. Below is the output from " show interface vlan 500" FACN5KSW001# show interface vlan500 Aroud 15 physical ports of each 40Gig is associated with the vlan 500. My plan was to have my three switches use all four of the 10Gb uplink ports to a fourth "aggregator switch" so that I'd have the necessary bandwidth for a total of 12 10Gb links to the aggregator. All the physical links in a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) must operate in full-duplex mode at the same speed. You can use a LAG to directly connect two switches when the traffic between them.
