Disabling spanning tree on the native VLAN of an IEEE 802.1Q trunk without disabling spanning
tree on every VLAN in the network can potentially cause spanning-tree loops. We recommend that
you leave spanning tree enabled on the native VLAN of an IEEE 802.1Q trunk or disable spanning
tree on every VLAN in the network. Make sure that your network is loop-free before disabling
spanning tree.

A trunk port cannot be a secure port.
A trunk port cannot be a tunnel port.
Trunk ports can be grouped into EtherChannel port groups, but all trunks in the group must have the
same configuration. When a group is first created, all ports follow the parameters set for the first
port to be added to the group. If you change the configuration of one of these parameters, the switch
propagates the setting that you entered to all ports in the group:
– allowed-VLAN list.
– STP port priority for each VLAN.
– STP Port Fast setting.
STP is supported by default on NNIs, but must be enabled on ENIs. STP is not supported on
UNIs.
– trunk status: if one port in a port group ceases to be a trunk, all ports cease to be trunks.
