Removing Trunks

Important
Consideration
You can modify a trunk in two ways:
You can modify a trunk's characteristics (for example, the operating
mode or the TCMP state).
You can add or remove a port from the trunk.
You must keep at least one port that you defined in the original trunk.
To completely redefine a trunk configuration, remove the trunk and
define a new one.
You cannot modify, add, or remove ports that are part of different
trunks from the one you that you are modifying.
To avoid configuration errors, do not modify FDDI station mode
port-pairs when any of the ports in the pair are members of a trunk.
If you have more than one media type on your Switch (for example,
Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet), you are prompted for a media
type before you are prompted for the trunk information.
Any changes that you make to the trunk's characteristics take effect
immediately and do not interrupt trunk operations. If you add or
remove a port, however, you must reboot the Switch to implement the
change.
You can modify one or several trunks using a single modify
command.
You can remove one, several, or all trunks using a single remove
command. This capability saves you from having to reboot the Switch
after each trunk remove.
If you remove a Gigabit Ethernet module that has trunks defined,
NVRAM is not cleaned up, but the trunk ports are available for use by
a replacement module of the same type.
