Maxim,

VPN and channel aggregation are two completely unrelated concepts.  If
you want to do channel aggregation, you will also need networking
equipments (routers and switches) that are intelligent enough to
realize that you are treating seven physical lines as one virtual
line.  Otherwise, the frames and packets will not be switched/routed
to the correct interfaces, and you could even end up with switching
loops (and that is very bad).

Once you have aggregation set up, you should then consider VPN *only*
if you want the traffic between you and the server encrypted and
protected against tampering, etc.

I think that, in this case, not only do you need more information, you
also need a clearer idea of exactly what you want to do.
