3.5 Trunk config

Port Trunking is the ability to group together several switch ports to increase the bandwidth between the
management switch and other switch. This is an inexpensive method to increase throughput between
switches (or to servers). We define the Port Trunking as the ability to group a set of ports into a single
logical link. The port trunk acts as single link between switches. It doesn't create a loop even though it is
physically connected as such.
