1.4.2 Creating an Eth-Trunk Interface
Context
Eth-Trunk interfaces increase bandwidth and improve transmission reliability. Depending on
the type of network application, configure Layer 2 or Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interfaces.
Procedure
l Creating a Layer 2 Eth-Trunk interface
1. Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2. Run:
interface eth-trunk trunk-id
A Layer 2 Eth-Trunk interface is created.
By default, an Eth-Trunk interface works in Layer 2 mode.
l Creating a Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interface
1. Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2. Run:
interface eth-trunk trunk-id
A Layer 2 Eth-Trunk interface is created.
3. Run:
undo portswitch
The Eth-Trunk interface is configured to work in Layer 3 mode.
4. Run:
ip address ip-address { mask | mask-length } [ sub ]
An IP address is configured for the Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interface.
5. (Optional) Run:
mtu mtu
The maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the Eth-Trunk interface is set.
The default MTU is 1500 bytes.
