SMC Networks 6724AL2 - Dynamically Configuring a Trunk

C ONFIGURING THE S WITCH
2-72
CLI – This example creates trunk 1 with ports 11 and 12. Just connect
these ports to two static trunk ports on another switch to form a trunk.
Dynamically Configuring a Trunk
Command Usage
• To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you enable LACP
before connecting the ports, and also disconnect the ports before
disabling LACP.
• If the target switch has also enabled LACP on the connected ports, the
trunk will be activated automatically.
• A trunk formed with another switch using LACP will automatically be
assigned the next available trunk ID.
