CREATE SWITCH TRUNK

Syntax

create switch trunk=name port=ports
[select=macsrc|macboth]

Parameters

trunk

Specifies the name of the trunk. The name can be up

to 10 alphanumeric characters. No spaces or special
characters are allowed.

port

Specifies the ports of the trunk. A trunk can have up

to 4 ports. The ports can be specified individually
(e.g., 1,2,5,8), as a range (e.g., 2-5), or both (e.g., 11-
13,18).

select

Specifies the load distribution method. Options are:

macsrc

Source address (SA)

trunking

macboth

Source address /

destination address
(SA/DA) trunking

You can specify only one load distribution method.
The default is SA/DA.

Description

This command creates a port trunk. To create the trunk, you specify the
ports on the switch that will constitute the trunk and the load
distribution method.

Examples

The following command creates a port trunk of Ports 3 through 6 on the
switch and assigns it the name “load22.” Since no load distribution is
specified, SA/DA is assigned by default:

create switch trunk=load22 port=3-6

The following command creates a port trunk of Ports 11 through 14 on
the switch and assigns it the name “rm44.” The load distribution is SA:

create switch trunk=rm44 port=11-14 select=macsrc
