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.
