Figure 44: Configuring Static Trunks
Command Usage
◆
When configuring static trunks, you may not be able to link switches of
different types, depending on the vendor’s implementation. However, note
that the static trunks on this switch are Cisco EtherChannel compatible.
◆
To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you add a static trunk via the
configuration interface before connecting the ports, and also disconnect the
ports before removing a static trunk via the configuration interface.
