They mention Link Aggregation and trunking.  I have a 16 port version that
does this and also calls it 802.??ad.  This lets you combine several
ethernet ports into 1 for load balancing, failover and bandwidth
consolidation.  It's nice so see it in a $100 switch!

I haven't had time to play with it on my switch yet.  It would be nice for
an iSCSI LAN to get more then 1 GB  between systems.
