Chapter 10 Configuring VLANs
Configuring VLAN Trunks
In Figure 10-3, Trunk ports 1 and 2 are configured as 100Base-T ports. These VLAN path costs are
assigned:
• VLANs 2 through 4 are assigned a path cost of 30 on Trunk port 1.
• VLANs 8 through 10 retain the default 100Base-T path cost on Trunk port 1 of 19.
• VLANs 8 through 10 are assigned a path cost of 30 on Trunk port 2.
• VLANs 2 through 4 retain the default 100Base-T path cost on Trunk port 2 of 19.
