Configuring Trunk Groups (Cli Example) - HP GbE2c - Blc Layer 2/3 Fiber SFP Option Application Manual

Configuring trunk groups (CLI example)

1. On Switch 1, configure trunk groups 5 and 3:
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 5
>> Trunk group 5# add 23
>> Trunk group 5# add 24
>> Trunk group 5# ena
>> Trunk group 5# apply
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 3
>> Trunk group 3# add 21
>> Trunk group 3# add 22
>> Trunk group 3# ena
>> Trunk group 3# apply
>> Trunk group 3# save
2. On Switch 2, configure trunk groups 4 and 2:
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 4
>> Trunk group 4# add 23
>> Trunk group 4# add 24
>> Trunk group 4# ena
>> Trunk group 4# apply
>> # /cfg/l2/trunk 2
>> Trunk group 2# add 21
>> Trunk group 2# add 22
>> Trunk group 2# ena
>> Trunk group 2# apply
>> Trunk group 2# save
NOTE: In this example, two switches are used. Any third-party device supporting link aggregation should be
configured manually. Connection problems could arise when using automatic trunk group negotiation on the
third-party device.
3. Examine the trunking information on each switch using the following command:
>> /info/l2/trunk
Information about each port in each configured trunk group will be displayed. Make sure that trunk groups consist of
the expected ports and that each port is in the expected state.
