Defining a Trunk
When you configure a trunk, you select endpoints that use the same logical port type
(such as ATM:Direct Trunk) and the same bandwidth.
Defining a trunk is a two-step sequence:
Step 1. Configure a trunk logical port type as follows:
For a CBX 500 or GX 550, see “Defining a Logical Port” on page 3-9.
For a B-STDX 9000, see one of the following sections:
• “Defining ATM Direct Trunk and OPTimum Cell Trunk Logical Ports” on
page 4-36
• “Defining ATM OPTimum Frame Trunk Logical Ports” on page 4-40
Step 2. Define a trunk configuration between the two switches by adding a trunk. Begin
with step 1 on page 7-18.
