Modifying a Port
Trunk
This procedure adds and removes ports from a port trunk.
Note
You should disconnect the cables from the ports of the trunk on the
switch before modifying it. Adding or removing ports from a trunk
without first disconnecting the cables can create loops in your
network topology, which can cause broadcast storms and poor
network performance.
To add or remove ports from a trunk, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Advanced Config menu, select Trunk Config.
The Trunk Configuration page is shown in Figure 77.
2. On the row that corresponds to the trunk you want to modify, from the
list, select Disable.
Note
Allied Telesis recommends disabling a port trunk before adding or
removing ports.

list, select Enable.
