46CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURING THE SWITCH

Guidelines for Creating Trunks

Any port on the Switch can be used for creating a trunk.

This switch supports a maximum of four trunks.

Each trunk may contain up to four members.

A port may only be a member of one trunk at any one time.

All ports in a trunk must be configured in an identical manner, including communication mode (that is, speed, duplex mode and flow control).

Four tabs are available on the Port Link Aggregation page:
