Disabling a Port Trunk

This procedure explains how to disable a port trunk.

Note

Before you disable a port trunk, disconnect all of the cables from the
ports of the trunk. Leaving the cables connected can create loops in
your network topology because the ports of a disabled port trunk
function as normal network ports, forwarding individual network
traffic.

To enable or disable a port trunk, perform 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.

The Trunking Page is shown in Figure 25 on page 80.

4. To disable a port trunk, select Disable from the pull-down menu next

to the trunk that you want to disable.

5. Then click Apply.

6. Modify the port trunk on the other switch and disconnect the cables.

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

Configuration to Flash to save your changes.
