Port Trunking
Port trunks can be used to increase the bandwidth of a network
connection or to ensure fault recovery. You can configure up to
6 trunk connections (combining 2 to 8 ports into a fat pipe)
between any two DES-3326 or other Layer 2 switches. However,
before making any physical connections between devices, use the
Trunk Configuration menu to specify the trunk on the devices at
both ends. When using a port trunk, note that:
The ports used in a trunk must all be of the same
media type (RJ-45, 100 Mbps fiber, or 1000 Mbps
fiber).
same trunk have certain other restrictions (see
below).
Ports can only be assigned to one trunk.
The ports at both ends of a connection must be
configured as trunk ports.
None of the ports in a trunk can be configured as
a mirror source port or a mirror target port.
All of the ports in a trunk have to be treated as a
whole when moved from/to, added or deleted
from a VLAN.
The Spanning Tree Protocol will treat all the
ports in a trunk as a whole.
