SMC Networks SMC7724M/VSW manual Port Trunk Configuration

PORT TRUNK CONFIGURATION

•The ports on both ends of a trunk must be configured the same for speed, duplex mode, and flow control.

•If the target switch has also enabled LACP on the connected ports, the trunk will be activated.

•If more than four ports attached to the same target switch have LACP enabled, the additional ports will be placed in standby mode, and will only be enabled if one of the active links fails.

•STP, VLAN, and IGMP settings can only be made for the entire trunk via the specified port-channel.

A trunk formed with another switch using LACP will automatically be assigned the next available port-channel id.

Web Interface

Click Trunk/Trunk Configuration or LACP Configuration. LACP configured ports will automatically negotiate a trunked link with LACP-configured ports on another device. Enter “1” in the Trunk field, select ports from the scroll-down port list, and click “Add.” After you have completed adding ports to the member list, click “Apply.”
