Q:Is there port cannot be set to port trunking for DES-3224 and DES-5024?

Yes, there are some port in the switch cannot be set to port trunking.

For DES-5024, port 5/6/7/8 and port 17/18/19/20 are not the first ports of the PSP, these ports cannot be selected as part

of the trunk group.

For DES-3224, port 3/4, 11/12, 15/16 and 23/24 cannot be selected as part of the trunk group.

Q:Is there any limitation for setting port trunking in DES-1016?

Yes, DES-1016 totally support four trunk groups, it ONLY allow user to set 4 port as a trunk group.
