Chapter 10: Static Port Trunking Commands
168 Section I: Basic Operations
ADD SWITCH TRUNK
Syntax
add switch trunk= name [tgid= id_number ] port= port
Parameters
trunk Specifies the name of the static port trunk to be
modified.
tgid Specifies the ID number of the static port trunk to be
modified. The range is 1 to 6. This parameter is
optional.
port Specifies the port to be added to the port trunk. You can
add more than one port at a time. You can specify the
ports individually (for example, 5,7,22), as a range (for
example, 18-20), or both (for example, 1,14-16).
Description
This command adds ports to an existing static port trunk. To initially create
a static port trunk, refer to “CREATE SWITCH TRUNK” on page 170.
Caution
Disconnect all network cables from the ports of the trunk on the
switch before using this command. Adding a port to a port trunk
without first disconnecting the cables may result in loops in your
network topology, which can produce broadcast storms and poor
network performance.
Note
If the port you are adding will be the lowest numbered port in the
trunk, its parameter settings will overwrite the settings of the existing
ports in the trunk. Consequently, you check to see if its settings are
appropriate prior to adding it to the trunk. If the port will not be the
lowest numbered port, then its settings are changed to match the
settings of the existing ports in the trunk.
Note
If the port to be added to a trunk is already a member of another
static trunk, you must first remove it from its current trunk
assignment. To remove ports from a trunk, see “DELETE SWITCH
TRUNK” on page 172.
