Explain: Bandwidth Aggregation

I'm doing some school work prepping for my test, and I just can't seem to grasp the concept of bandwidth aggregation. Could some of you please attempt to explain this to me? All I am really gathering from this is that it allows more bandwidth, from more than one source. Almost 1 + 1 = 2 in the sense 1 = throughput and 2 = more throughput.

Thanks guys

In relation to the internet, this may help: Bandwidth Aggregation: Combining Internet Connections to Incrementally Increase Bandwidth Capacity

It is a simple explanation, to a larger procedure and has many different applications.

wow, that is simple. Why does Cisco have to take that sentence and make it two pages?

Thanks man. I think that cisco is going a bit more in depth though. Now I get the gist of it.

95 viper had it and you pretty much got it. Basically, You take 2 different connections. I dont mean from ethernet 1 or ethernet 2 I mean 2 seperate lines from the ISP. Now their are 2 ways you can do this. Some routers or switches support bandwidth aggregation. Their is also software that can control it.
