The EVIC will know that traffic coming from eioc10 is on VLAN 10 and eioc20 is
on VLAN 20.
Link Aggregation
Link Aggregation (or trunking) is a method of combining physical network links into
a single, logical link for increased bandwidth. Link Aggregation also provides load
balancing where processing and communication activity is distributed across
several links in a trunk to reduce the likelihood that a single link becomes
over-subscribed.

Figure 4-33 Link Aggregation Window
Following is a high-level description for each field in the window:
Ext
The external Ethernet Port number that applies to the remainder of the settings
in each row. This field is viewable only.
Link Status
Indicates whether the Ethernet link is up or down (viewable only).
LACP Enabled
Indicates whether the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP , IEEE
802.3ad ) is enabled on the port. If LACP is enabled (i.e. LACP Enabled =
Yes) then the current aggregation number is selected automatically and the
actor key (1- 65535) should be specified (see 'actor key' definition later in this
section). If LACP is disabled (i.e., LACP Enabled = No), then the aggregation
index should be specified (see Manual Agg# definition below). Disabling
LACP is also known as manual mode.
