CHAPTER 4

Ports and Trunking

Trunk groups can provide super-bandwidth, multi-link connections between switches or other trunk-capable devices. A trunk group is a group of ports that act together, combining their bandwidth to create a single, larger virtual link. This chapter provides configuration back- ground and examples for trunking multiple ports together:
