Sun Trunking 1.3 software allows you to aggregate up to four Sun Gigabit Ethernet adapter card ports or up to sixteen 10/100 Sun Fast Ethernet adapter card ports into a single virtual link or trunk. Once aggregated, these point-to-point links act as a single "fat pipe" to provide increased bandwidth and high availability, enabling higher aggregated data transfer rates than any single Sun GigabitEthernet or FastEthernet adapter card link.


At a Glance

  • Full IEEE 802.3ad compliance with support for the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)
  • Dynamically add and remove trunk members for on-demand bandwidth
  • Bundled Gigabit Ethernet and Fast Ethernet links
  • Load Balancing
  • Automatic link level failover

Key Applications

  • Fast database access and backup
  • Large data warehousing
  • Web infrastructure
  • Cluster computing and HPC/Grid
  • Video streaming
  • IP/TV
