Configuring MultiLink Trunk (MLT) members
You can configure groups of links between the Business Policy Switch and
another switch or a server to provide higher bandwidth with active redundant
links. Trunked ports can span multiple units of the stack for fail-safe connectivity
to mission-critical servers and the network center.
You can configure two to four switch ports together as members of a trunk to a
maximum of six trunks.
To configure MultiLink Trunk members:
1 From the main menu, choose Application > MultiLink Trunk > Group.
The Group page opens (Figure 73).

Listening and Learning states before entering the
