Statically Configuring a Trunk

Command Usage
• When configuring static trunks, you may not be

able to link switches of different types,
depending on the manufacturer’s
implementation. However, note that the static
trunks on this switch are Cisco EtherChannel
compatible.

• To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure

you add a static trunk via the configuration
interface before connecting the ports, and also
disconnect the ports before removing a static
trunk via the configuration interface.

Command Attributes
• Member List (Current) – Shows configured trunks (Trunk ID, Unit, Port).
• New – Includes entry fields for creating new trunks.

- Trunk – Trunk identifier. (Range: 1-4)
- Port – Port identifier. (Range: 1-8)

Web – Click Port, Trunk Membership. Enter a trunk ID of 1-4 in the Trunk field,
select any of the switch ports from the scroll-down port list, and click Add. After you
have completed adding ports to the member list, click Apply.
