Creating Access and Trunk Ports
To create access and trunk ports, use the following commands.
•
Access port — a port on the service provider edge that directly connects to the customer. An access port may belong to only one
service provider VLAN.
•
Trunk port — a port on a service provider bridge that connects to another service provider bridge and is a member of multiple service
provider VLANs.
Physical ports and port-channels can be access or trunk ports.
