switch fabric-channel trunk
Use this command to create a trunk and add FortiSwitch-5003A interfaces to the trunk. You use trunks
to group FortiSwitch-5003A interfaces so that you can use 802.3ad static mode layer-2 link
aggregation to distribute sessions to the fabric interfaces of the FortiGate-5001A and 5005FA2 boards
connected to the FortiSwitch-5003A interfaces in the trunk.
For information about FortiSwitch-5003A link aggregation for FortiGate-5140 chassis, see “Fabric
channel layer-2 link aggregation” on page 33 . For information about FortiSwitch-5003A link
aggregation for FortiGate-5050 chassis, see “Fabric channel layer-2 link aggregation” on page 56 .
