Trunk Configuration
The switch supports both static trunking and dynamic Link Aggregation
Control Protocol (LACP). You can create multiple links between devices
that work as one virtual, aggregate link. A port trunk offers a dramatic
increase in bandwidth for network segments where bottlenecks exist, as
well as providing a fault-tolerant link between two devices. You can create
up to four trunks at a time.
Command Usage
Besides balancing the load across each port in the trunk, the other ports
provide redundancy by taking over the load if a port in the trunk fails.
However, before making any physical connections between devices, use
the Web interface to specify the trunk on the devices at both ends. When
using a port trunk, take note of the following points:
• Finish configuring port trunks before you connect the corresponding
network cables between switches to avoid creating a loop.
• You can create up to four trunks, using up to eight ports in a trunk.
• Ports at both ends of a connection must be configured as trunk ports.
