Port Channel Interface

Link Aggregation Groups enable the combination of multiple network connections to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy in Prisma SD-WAN.
The LAG (Link Aggregation Group) and LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol), commonly called port-channel, on Layer 3 ports on the LAN side. LAG and LACP support enhances your network infrastructure by allowing you to combine multiple physical interfaces into a single logical interface.
LAG and LACP support aligns with industry standards, allowing seamless integration with your existing network equipment. By leveraging this capability, you can enhance your network performance, simplify management, and improve overall user experience across your distributed enterprise environments. Link Aggregation Groups enable combining one or two network connections in scenarios where higher throughput or fail-over capabilities are essential.
LACP, on the other hand, is a protocol that manages the bundling of these physical links, ensuring proper load balancing and link status monitoring. This includes details on creating and modifying LACP on supported interfaces.
