4. Select a port range (for example, 5 – 8). On Chassis devices, the port numbers include the slot numbers. For
example, you can select 1/5 – 1/8.
5. Select 2 or 4 to indicate the number of ports in each group. Each group must have the same number of ports.
6. Select the port groups. Each group begins with the primary port number for that group. To select two groups,
click on the first group, then hold down the CTRL key and click on the second group. Do not select more than
two groups.
7. Select Server if you are connecting the trunk group ports to a server. Otherwise, the software assumes you
are connecting the trunk group ports to another Layer 2 or routing switch and uses the default value Switch.
8. Click Apply to save the changes to the device's running-config file.
9. Select the Save link at the bottom of the dialog. Select Yes when prompted to save the configuration change
to the startup-config file on the device's flash memory.
10. Click on the plus sign next to Command in the tree view to list the command options.
11. Select the Reload link and select Yes when the Web management interface asks you whether you really want
to reload the software.
12. If the other end of the trunk group is a switch or routing switch, log in to the other device and follow the steps
above.
NOTE: Hewlett-Packard recommends that you reload the software immediately after saving a trunk group
configuration to flash memory, before making further configuration changes.
Modifying Trunk Group Membership
You can change port membership by removing individual ports from the trunk group. To remove a port from a
trunk group, use one of the following methods.
USING THE CLI
To remove ports 1/3 and 1/4 from the trunk group, enter the following command:
HP9300(config)# no trunk ethernet 1/3 to 1/4
Syntax: no trunk ethernet <portnum> [to <portnum>]
The <portnum> parameter indicates the port you are removing.
