Were you thinking of any particular Ethernet trunking standard? I assume you're referring to Ethernet. ng_fec(4) is a Netgraph node which suports Fast EtherChannel, which is a Cisco-ism. It may not be what you want. The IEEE standard for Ethernet trunking is 802.3ad Link Aggregation (aka LACP in Cisco-ese). As far as I know we don't currently support 802.3ad. You might also wish to investigate ng_one2many(4), which is a bit more simplistic.
