The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is part of IEEE 802.3ad and allows for the automatic creation of link aggregation groups (LAGs) to combine multiple physical links into a single logical link for increased bandwidth and network redundancy. While Port Mirroring can be utilized for monitoring network traffic by sending a copy of traffic to another port, it does not aggregate bandwidth nor provide redundancy. Static Port Channel requires manual configuration and does not involve a protocol that assists in automatically managing aggregated links. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is unrelated to link aggregation as it is used for dynamic IP address allocation.
