Configuring Trunk Groups (Cli Example) - HP 438031-B21 - 1:10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Application Manual

Configuring trunk groups (CLI example)

1.
On Switch 1, configure trunk groups 5 and 3:
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 5
>> Trunk group 5# add 24
>> Trunk group 5# add 25
>> Trunk group 5# ena
>> Trunk group 5# apply
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 3
>> Trunk group 3# add 22
>> Trunk group 3# add 23
>> Trunk group 3# ena
>> Trunk group 3# apply
>> Trunk group 3# save
2.
On Switch 2, configure trunk groups 4 and 2:
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 4
>> Trunk group 4# add 24
>> Trunk group 4# add 25
>> Trunk group 4# ena
>> Trunk group 4# apply
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 2
>> Trunk group 2# add 22
>> Trunk group 2# add 23
>> Trunk group 2# ena
>> Trunk group 2# apply
>> Trunk group 2# save
NOTE:
In this example, two switches are used. Any third-party device supporting link aggregation
should be configured manually. Connection problems might arise when using automatic trunk group
negotiation on the third-party device.
3.
Examine the trunking information on each switch, using the following command:
>> /info/l2/trunk
Information about each port in each configured trunk group is displayed. Make sure that trunk groups
consist of the expected ports and that each port is in the expected state.
