5.3 Port Trunk

Port trunk is used to combine a number of ports together to make a single high-bandwidth data
path, which can highly extend the bandwidth. The bandwidth of the trunk is the sum of bandwidth
of its member ports.
There are some rules on using trunk:
For the member ports in a trunk group, their configuration of Port setting (Speed and Duplex,

Flow Control), QoS must be the same.
For the newly joined member ports in a trunk group, their default setting of Port setting

(Speed and Duplex, Flow Control), QoS will be configured the same as that of the first
member port in the trunk group.
The trunk member ports cannot be set as mirroring port.

Before setting the trunk, its member ports should be divided to the same VLAN, and have the

same PVID and drop the untagged packet rule. Change of the trunk setting will not affect the
VLAN setting.
If the port trunk is needed, you are suggested to configure the port trunk function here before
configuring the other functions for the member ports.
On this page, you can configure and view the information of the trunk group of the switch.
Enable or disable IGMP snooping function globally on the switch.
Enable or disable Report Message Suppression function globally.
If this function is enabled, the first Report Message from the
listener will forward to the router ports while the subsequent
Report Message will be suppressed to reduce the IGMP packets.
Displays the multicast IP address.
Displays the VLAN ID of the multicast group. If the packet does
not carry VLAN ID, then here displays the PVID of the port. All port
members of a multicast group should be divided to the same
VLAN, and have the same PVID.
Displays the forwarding port list of the multicast group.
