Viewing and Changing Port Groups
A port group is a set of physical ports that function together as a single link and provide load sharing and link redun-

dancy. Only network ports can participate in a port group.
The WSS balances port group traffic among the group’s physical ports by assigning traffic flows to ports based on the
source and destination MAC addresses of the traffic. The WSS assigns a traffic flow to an individual port in the group
and uses the same port for all subsequent traffic for that flow.

A port group ensures link stability by providing redundant connections for the same link. If an individual port in a group
fails, the WSS reassigns traffic to the remaining ports. When the failed port starts operating again, the WSS begins using
it for new traffic flows. Traffic that belonged to the port before it failed continues to be assigned to other ports.

Layer 2 configuration changes apply collectively to a port group as a whole but not to individual ports within the group.
For example, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) changes affect the entire port group rather than individual ports. When you
make Layer 2 configuration changes, you can use a port group name in place of the port list. Ethernet port statistics
continue to apply to individual ports and not to port groups.
