Example of a Port Trunk

Figure 18 shows an example of a port trunk between an AT-8326GB and
a network server. The server is connected to the switch with four data
links. The links are connected to ports 1 through 4 on the switch.

Figure 18 Port Trunk Example 1

You can also use port trunking to increase the bandwidth between
switches. The example in Figure 19 shows a port trunk of four data links
between two AT-8326GB Fast Ethernet switches.
