portCfgTrunkPort

Enables or disables trunking on a port.
Synopsis portcfgtrunkport [slot/]port[,] mode
Description Use this command to enable or disable trunking on a port. Use switchCfgTrunk to enable or disable
trunking on all ports of a switch.
When the command is executed to update the trunking configuration, the port to which the
configuration applies is disabled and subsequently re-enabled with the new trunking configuration.
Traffic through the ports may be temporarily disrupted.
Disabling trunking fails if a Trunk Area (TA) is enabled on the port. Use the portTrunkArea command
to remove the TA before disabling trunking.
Notes Enabling trunking requires an ISL Trunking license. You may disable trunking without a license.
The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer
