Working with Ethernet Link Aggregation Groups
Ethernet link aggregation groups (LAGs) provide the ability to treat multiple switch ports as one switch 
port. The port groups act as a single logical port for high-bandwidth connections between two network 
elements. A single link aggregation group balances the traffic load across the links in the channel....

  Working with Ethernet Link Aggregation Groups
An aggregation service alarm is generated. 
The aggregation service alarm indicates the percentage of links within the aggregation that have 
failed. For example, if an Ethernet link aggregation group contains four Ethernet links and one fails, 
the aggregation service alarm indicates that 25% of the links are down.
