Configuring a trunk group
Example 2: Configuring a trunk group that spans
two Gbps Ethernet modules in a chassis device
This section shows how to configure a trunk group that spans two modules in a chassis device.
Multi-slot trunk groups are supported on 1-GbE ports, 10-GbE ports , as well as on static and LACP
trunk ports.
To configure a trunk group consisting of two groups of ports, 1 – 2 on module 1 and 5 – 6 on
module 4, enter the following commands.
TurboIron(config)#trunk ethernet 1 to 2 ethernet 5 to 6
Trunk will be created in next trunk deploy
TurboIron(config)#write memory
TurboIron(config)#trunk deploy
NOTE
The trunk deploy command dynamically places trunk configuration changes into effect, without a
software reload.
Example 3: Configuring a multi-slot trunk group
with one port per module
You can select one port per module in a multi-slot trunk group.
To configure a two-port multi-slot trunk group consisting of ports 1 on module 1 and 2 on module 2,
enter the following commands.
TurboIron(config)#trunk ethernet 1 to 1 ethernet 2 to 2
Trunk will be created in next trunk deploy
TurboIron(config)#write memory
TurboIron(config)#trunk deploy
Notice that the groups of ports meet the criteria for a multi-slot trunk group. Each group contains
the same number of ports (two) and begins on a primary port (1 and 3.
Example 4: Configuring a trunk group of 10 Gbps
Ethernet ports
You can configure 10 Gbps Ethernet ports together in a trunk group.
To configure a trunk group containing two 10 Gbps Ethernet ports, enter commands such as the
following.
TurboIron(config)#trunk ethernet 1 to 2
TurboIron(config-trunk-1-2)#write memory
TurboIron(config-trunk-1-2)#exit
TurboIron(config)#trunk deploy
These commands configure a trunk group consisting of 10 Gbps Ethernet ports 1 and 2, then
deploy the trunk group. The trunk configuration does not take effect until you deploy it.
