Creating a Port Trunk

This procedure explains how to create a static port trunk.

Caution

Do not connect the cables of a port trunk to the ports on the switch
until you have configured the ports on both the switch and the end
node. Connecting the cables prior to configuring the ports can create
loops in your network topology. Loops can result in broadcast storms
which can adversely affect the operation of your network.

To create a port trunk, do the following procedure:

1. Select the Bridge folder.

The Bridge folder expands.

2. From the Bridge folder, select the Trunk Config. folder.

The Trunk Config. folder expands.

3. From the Trunk Config. folder, select Trunking.
