Configuring a trunk group
The <secondary-portnum> parameter specifies the secondary port in the trunk group.
NOTE
Two-port trunk groups are supported for 10 Gbps Ethernet. You cannot specify more than two ports.
To display configuration information and load-sharing statistics for the trunk group, enter the show
trunk command. Refer to
“Displaying trunk group configuration information”
Additional trunking options
The following trunking options can be performed on ports in deployed trunks.Note that these
options are not supported on LACP trunk ports.
The additional trunking options are as follows:
•
Naming a trunk port
•
Disabling or re-enabling a trunk port
•
Deleting a static trunk group (applies to static trunks only)
•
Specifying the minimum number of ports in a trunk group (applies to static trunks only)
•
Monitoring a trunk port
•
Configuring outbound rate shaping on a trunk port
•
Enabling sFlow forwarding on an individual port in a trunk
•
Setting the sFlow sampling rate on an individual port in a trunk
NOTE
Depending on the operational state of LACP-enabled ports, at any time, these ports may join a trunk
group, change trunk group membership, exit a trunk group, or possibly never join a trunk group.
Therefore, before configuring trunking options on LACP-enabled ports (e.g., naming the port,
disabiling the port, etc.), verify the actual trunk group port membership using the show trunk
command. To view the status of LACP, use the show link-aggregate command.
Naming a trunk port
To name an individual port in a trunk group, enter a command such as the following at the trunk
group configuration level.
TurboIron(config)#trunk e 1 to 4
TurboIron(config-trunk-1-4)#port-name customer1 ethernet 2
This command assigns the name “customer1” to port 2 in the trunk group consisting of ports 1 –
4.
Syntax: [no] port-name <ASCII string> ethernet<portnum>
The <ASCII string> parameter specifies the port name. The name can be up to 49 characters long.
The <portnum> parameter is a valid port in the trunk group.
Disabling or re-enabling a trunk port
This feature is supported on individual ports of a static trunk group.
