TRUNKS

6.1 Membership

This page allows you to create a maximum of 4 trunks of up to 8 ports each. For instructions on
how to create, modify, and delete trunks, please see Working with Trunks.
The Membership Table has one row for each port and a column for each trunk, plus an
additional column for ports that are not members of a trunk. Each row contains radio buttons
which are used to indicate which trunk (if any) the port belongs to. Each radio button is in a
column of its own. The columns are:
• Port - The front-panel port number.
• Not a Trunk Member - If the radio button in this column is selected, the port is not a
member of any trunks. This is the default state.
• Trunk T1 - T4 - These columns correspond to the 4 trunks that are supported by the
switch. Clicking on the radio button in any one of these columns causes the port to
become a member of the corresponding trunk. Each trunk can have a maximum of 8
ports, and a minimum of 1 port.
When a trunk is first created it is given the following, default configuration:
• Speed/Duplex is set to Auto Speed (see TRUNKS > Configuration)
• Flow Control is turned off (see TRUNKS > Configuration)
