6.2.1.6 Managing Port Backup
6.2.1.6.1. Configuring Port Backup Configuration Page
Two link aggregation groups are associated with one uplink set as the uplink set 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 aggregation group is link down (all members of the active aggregation
group are link down), the backup aggregation group will be activated. As the active aggregation
group is link up again, the backup one will be deactivated.
