Link Aggregation
Link Aggregation or LACP is the combining two or more separate cabled links into a single logical channel, referred to as an EtherChannel
From the host end, this can also be called NIC teaming
; at the switch end, it can be called port aggregation
The term bonding is also widely substituted for aggregation. For example, a single network adapter and cable segment might support 1 Gbps; bonding this with another adapter and cable segment gives a link of 2 Gbps.
