Chapter 3 Configuring Layer 2 Interfaces
Configuring Access and Trunk Interfaces
This example shows how to set Ethernet 3/1 as a Layer 2 access port with PortFast enabled and port
channel disabled:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 3/1
switch(config-if)# switchport host
switch(config-if)#
Configuring Trunk Ports
You can configure a Layer 2 port as a trunk port. A trunk port transmits untagged packets for one VLAN
plus encapsulated, tagged, packets for multiple VLANs. (See the “IEEE 802.1Q Encapsulation” section
on page 3-4 for information about encapsulation.)
Note The device supports 802.1Q encapsulation only.

Before you configure a trunk port, ensure that you are configuring a Layer 2 interface.
