Configuring the Switch Modules using the Menu-driven Interface
• If the IGMP snooping configuration for any port trunk member is changed, the IGMP
snooping settings for all port trunk members are changed.
•
•
The port trunk takes precedence over any other setting. That is, the settings of trunked
ports are the same as the master port settings.
When any trunked port becomes a non-trunked port, all of the port configurations are
reset to default settings.
Refer to Appendix G in the HP ProLiant e-Class C-GbE Interconnect Switch User Guide for
additional information on port trunking.
To configure a port trunking group:
1. Highlight Configure Port Trunking on the Configuration menu.
2. Press the Enter key. The following screen is displayed.
The user-changeable parameters in the switch module are as follows:
— Group ID—This field is for a group ID number for the port trunking group.
— Group Name—Enter a name for the port trunking group.
— Member ports—Toggle between M to indicate membership of the port trunking
group, or a dash (—) to indicate nonmembership.
— State—Toggle between Enabled and Disabled. This setting is used to turn a port
trunking group on or off. It is useful for diagnostics, to quickly isolate a bandwidth
intensive network device or to have an absolute backup aggregation group that is not
under automatic control.
3. After making your changes, highlight APPLY, then press the Enter key.
IMPORTANT: To save the configuration settings permanently, you must enter them into NVRAM
using the Save Changes option on the main menu. Refer to the “Saving Changes” section earlier
in this chapter.
