Usage
Information
This feature groups two LAGs to work in tandem as a supergroup, so that, for example, if one 
LAG goes down, the other LAG is taken down automatically, providing an alternate path to 
reroute traffic, avoiding oversubscription on the other LAG. You can use both static and 
dynamic (LACP) LAGs to configure failover groups. For details, refer to the Port Channel 
chapter in the 
FTOS Configuration Guide.
