Trunk Configuration Menu
Trunk groups can provide super-bandwidth connections between switches or other trunk capable
devices. A trunk is a group of ports that act together, combining their bandwidth to create a single,
larger port. Up to 12 trunk groups can be configured on the switch, with the following restrictions:
 Any physical switch port can belong to no more than one trunk group.
 Up to 8 ports can belong to the same trunk group.
 Configure all ports in a trunk group with the same properties (speed, duplex, flow control, STG,
VLAN, and so on).
 Trunking from non-BLADE devices must comply with Cisco
®
EtherChannel
®
technology.
 By default, port 17 and 18 are trunked to support an internal cross-connect trunk. The default
status of cross connect ports is disabled.
By default, each trunk group is empty and disabled.
