MultiLink Trunking

MultiLink Trunking (MLTs) is a point-to-point connection that aggregates multiple ports so that they logically act like a single port with the aggregated bandwidth. Grouping multiple ports into a logical link allows you to achieve higher aggregate throughput on a switch-to-switch or server-to-server application.

For a description of the products supported by Optivity Switch Manager, see the following table.
