There are numerous benefits:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Increased aggregate bandwidth</strong> for multiple traffic flows</li> <li><strong>Automatic redundancy</strong>: if a physical link fails, the others take over without intervention</li> <li><strong>Dynamic negotiation</strong>: the protocol detects and adapts to changes in link status</li> </ul> <p>&gt; ⚠️ <strong>Important</strong>: LACP does not increase the throughput of a single flow. A given flow always remains on the same physical link (hashing). The benefit is realized across multiple simultaneous flows.</p>
