• Trunk Mode indicates the Trunk Mode for each of the trunks:
In this example, the Trunk Mode fields for trunks I1 and I2 are set to
Enhanced. When in this mode, the switch evenly distributes source MAC
addresses to the trunk members, balancing traffic throughout each trunk (see
Note on page 1-33
).
• Trunk Status indicates the Trunk Status for each of the trunks. When set to
Enabled, the configuration settings for that trunk are activated.

you choose Inter-Switch Trunk Configuration from the MultiLink Trunk
Configuration Menu screen.
