6.2.1.3 Managing Port Backup
6.2.1.3.1. Configuring Port Backup Configuration Page
Two link aggregation groups are associated with one port group as the port group is created.
Two link aggregation groups are defined as active and backup port internally. One of two link
aggregation groups will be activated at a time. For example, as active link aggregation group is
link up, the backup aggregation group will be blocked (no traffic could be sent or received).
Otherwise, if active group is link down (all members of the active group are link down), the
backup group will be activated. As the active group is link up again, the backup group will be
deactivated.
