add switch trunk
Syntax ADD SWItch TRunk=trunk POrt=port-list
where:
■ trunk is a character string 1 to 15 characters long. Valid characters are
uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, the underscore, and the hyphen.
■ port-list is a port number, range (specified as n-m), or comma-separated list
of numbers and/or ranges. Port numbers start at 1 and end at m, where m
is the highest numbered Ethernet switch port, including uplink ports.
Description This command adds ports to an existing trunk group on the switch. When a
port is added to a trunk group, its current speed and duplex mode settings are
ignored and the port is set to autonegotiate to the speed of the trunk group and
full duplex mode. Port trunking must be configured on both ends of the link, or
network loops may result.
The trunk parameter specifies the name of the trunk group. The name is not
case sensitive. The name uniquely identifies the trunk group. The specified
trunk group must already exist.
The port parameter specifies the switch ports to be added to the trunk group.
Ports specified must not be in another trunk group, and must have the same
VLAN configuration. They cannot include the switch’s mirroring port. A trunk
group can consist of a maximum of 8 fixed or uplink ports but not a mixture of
both types.
A port that has ingress filtering enabled can be added to a trunk group only on Rapier i
and Rapier G Series switches.
Example To add ports 5 and 6 to trunk group Trunk1, use the command:
add swi tr=trunk1 po=5,6
