The following examples show how to create different types of trunk groups.
Configuring a Static Trunk or Static LACP Trunk Group.
Syntax: trunk < port-list > < trk1 ... trk36 > < trunk | lacp >
Configures the specified static trunk type.
This example uses ports C4 - C6 to create a non-protocol static trunk group
with the group name of Trk2.
ProCurve(config)# trunk c4-c6 trk2 trunk
Removing Ports from a Static Trunk Group. This command removes
one or more ports from an existing Trkx trunk group.
Removing a port from a trunk can create a loop and cause a broadcast storm.
When you remove a port from a trunk where spanning tree is not in use, HP
recommends that you first disable the port or disconnect the link on that port.
Syntax: no trunk < port-list >
Removes the specified ports from an existing trunk group.
For example, to remove ports C4 and C5 from an existing trunk group.
ProCurve(config)# no trunk c4-c5
Enabling a Dynamic LACP Trunk Group. In the default port configura
tion, all ports on the switch are set to LACP Passive. However, to enable the
switch to automatically form a trunk group that is dynamic on both ends of
the link, the ports on one end of a set of links must be LACP Active. The ports
on the other end can be either LACP Active or LACP Passive. The active
command enables the switch to automatically establish a (dynamic) LACP
trunk group when the device on the other end of the link is configured for
LACP Passive.
