A redundant trunk link provides a simple solution for network recovery when a trunk
interface goes down. Traffic is routed to another trunk interface, keeping network
convergence time to a minimum. You can configure redundant trunk groups (RTGs) with
a primary link and a secondary link on trunk interfaces, or configure dynamic selection of
the active interface. If the primary link fails, the secondary link automatically takes over
without waiting for normal STP convergence. An RTG can be created only if the following
conditions are satisfied:
A minimum of two trunk interfaces that are not part of any RTG are available.
All the selected trunk interfaces to be added to the RTG have the same VLAN
configuration.
The selected trunk interfaces are not part of a spanning-tree configuration.
To configure an RTG using the J-Web interface:
