Support link aggregation
For the purposes of higher availability in the case of port failure as well as higher bandwidth, it would be great for HaaS to support link aggregation, which allows 2 or more ports to be combined into a single Link Aggregation Group (LAG).
Many times, to save money in terms of cables, server ports and network ports, only a couple of cables are connected from servers to the network switches. Supporting LAGs, especially when combined with 802.1q tagging(see #278), would mean that even in these constrained environments, several VLANs could be supported to nodes with higher reliability and performance.
