The IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation protocol groups multiple Ethernet interfaces and forms a single link layer interface known as LAG (link aggregation group). Traffic is balanced across the member links in the LAG to make use of all available bandwidth. The balancing is done by the LAG hashing algorithm. The LAG hashing algorithm determines the member link to be used for an incoming frame on the basis of certain values in the frame header.
