Symmetrical configuration with asymmetrical operation.
Asymmetrical configuration with asymmetrical operation.
Performs IMA differential delay calculation and synchronization.
Provides programmable limit on allowable differential delay and minimum
number of links per group.
Supports up to 279 ms (for T1 links) and 226 ms (for E1 links) link-differential
delay between links in an IMA group.
