Wait, I think I know what Marc is referring to.
In VLAN terminology, there's a concept of a trunk (traffic from
multiple VLANs can easily travel over such a link).
Port aggregation schemes also refer to something called a "trunk".
However, these two "trunks" are different. Port aggregation
technology is different from VLAN technology.
