COMMAND USAGE
â—† When configuring static trunks, you may not be able to link switches of
different types, depending on the vendor’s implementation. However,
note that the static trunks on this switch are Cisco EtherChannel
compatible.
â—† To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you add a static trunk
via the configuration interface before connecting the ports, and also
disconnect the ports before removing a static trunk via the
configuration interface.
