Enabling and Disabling a Port Trunk
This procedure enables and disables a port trunk. Note the following
before performing this procedure:
Do not enable a port trunk until after you have configured the trunk on
both switches.
Do not connect the cables to the ports on the switches until after you
have configured and enabled the trunk on both switches.
The ports of a disabled trunk forward traffic as individual ports.
Note
Before disabling a port trunk, disconnect all cables from the ports of
the trunk. Leaving the cables connected can create a loop in your
network topology. A loop can cause a broadcast storm and poor
network performance.
To enable or disable a port trunk, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Advanced Config menu, select Trunk Config.
The Trunk Configuration page is shown in Figure 55.
2. Click the status of the port trunk and change it to Enable or Disable.
3. Click Apply.
