Configuring a trunk group
11
NOTE
If you enter no config-trunk-ind, all port configuration commands are removed from the individual
ports and the configuration of the primary port is applied to all the ports. Also, once you enter the
no config-trunk-ind command, the enable, disable, and monitor commands are valid only on the
primary port and apply to the entire trunk group.
The disable command disables the port. The states of other ports in the trunk group are not
affected.
If you have configured a name for the trunk port, you can specify the port name, as shown in the
following example.
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#config-trunk-ind
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#disable customer1
Syntax: disable <portname>
To enable an individual port in a trunk group, enter commands such as the following at the trunk
group configuration level.
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#config-trunk-ind
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#enable ethernet 2
Syntax: enable ethernet<portnum>]
Syntax: enable <portname>
Disabling or re-enabling a range or list of trunk ports
To disable a range of ports in a trunk group, enter commands such as the following.
PowerConnect(config)#trunk ethernet 1 to 4
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#config-trunk-ind
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#disable ethernet 3 to 4
This command disables ports 3 – 4 in trunk group 1 – 4.
To disable a list of ports, enter a command such as the following.
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#disable ethernet 1 ethernet 3 ethernet 4
This command disables ports 1, 3, and 4 in the trunk group.
You can specify a range and a list on the same command line. For example, to re-enable some
trunk ports, enter a command such as the following.
PowerConnect(config-trunk-1-4)#enable ethernet 1 to 2 ethernet 4
Syntax: [no] config-trunk-ind
Syntax: [no] disable ethernet <portnum> [to <portnum> | ethernet <portnum>]
Syntax: [no] enable ethernet <portnum> [to <portnum> | ethernet <portnum>]
The to <portnum> parameter indicates that you are specifying a range. Specify the lower port
number in the range first, then to, then the higher port number in the range.
The <portnum> parameter specifies an individual port. You can enter this parameter multiple
times to specify a list, as shown in the examples above.
