Optimizing Traffic Flow with Port Controls, Port Trunking, and Port-Based Priority

Port Trunking

Menu: Viewing and Configuring a Static Trunk Group

Important Configure port trunking before you connect the trunked links to another

switch, routing switch, or server. Otherwise, a broadcast storm could occur.

(If you need to connect the ports before configuring them for trunking, you

can temporarily disable the ports until the trunk is configured. See “Using the

CLI To Configure Ports” on page 9-8.)

To View and/or Configure Static Port Trunking: This procedure uses

the Port/Trunk Settings screen to configure a static port trunk group on the

switch.

1. Follow the procedures in the Important note above.

2. From the Main Menu, Select:

2. Switch Configuration . . .

2. Port/Trunk Settings

3. Press (for E

dit) and then use the arrow keys to access the port trunk

parameters.

4. In the Group column, move the cursor to the port you want to configure.

5. Use the Space bar to choose a trunk group (Trk1 . . . Trk6) trunk group

assignment for the selected port.

These two columns indicate

static trunk status.

(For dynamic LACP trunk

status, use the CLI show lacp

command—page 9-20.)
