<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a network with 4 Linksys SRW2024 switches. &nbsp;I would like to increase the throughput between the switches to at least 2 Gigabit. Let say that i do a 2 port Aggregation, Does the Link Aggregation distribute traffic on 2 ports, will it first use the first link and if maxed out use the other or will it just be used as redundnancy.<br />
<br />
I would also like to do the same with 3 HP ML270 G6. &nbsp;If i team the nic cards will i need to do an aggregation on the switch accordingly?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advnace

Link Aggregation with linksys SRW2024

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
