Chapter 6: Static Port Trunking

80

If the switch does not contain a port trunk, all of the ports on the switch
are unchecked. If there is a port trunk, the ports in the trunk are
checked.

4. Click the dialog boxes of the ports that will make up the port trunk.

A check in a box indicates the port is a member of the trunk. No check
means the port is not a member. A port trunk can contain up to eight
ports.

5. Change the Trunk Status from Disable to Manual. The choice in the

status field are the following:

Active
The aggregator will broadcast and respond to LACPDU (LACP
Data Unit) packets. This setting enables the LACP feature.

Passive
The aggregator will not broadcast LACPDU packets, but it will
respond to them. This setting enables the LACP feature.

Manual
Enables static port trunking and disables the LACP feature.

6. Click Apply.

The trunk is now operational on the switch.

7. Configure the port trunk on the other switch and connect the cables.

8. From the main menu on the left side of the page, select Save

Configuration to Flash to permanently save your changes.
