❑ When cabling a trunk, the order of the connections should be

maintained on both nodes. The lowest numbered port in a trunk
on the switch should be connected to the lowest numbered port
of the trunk on the other device, the next lowest numbered port
on the switch should be connected to the next lowest numbered
port on the other device, and so on.

For example, assume that you are connecting a trunk between
two AT-8024 switches. On the first AT-8024 switch you had
chosen ports 12, 13, 14, 15 for the trunk. On the second AT-
8024 switch you had chosen ports 21, 22, 23, and 24. To
maintain the order of the port connections, you would
connect port 12 on the first AT-8024 switch to port 21 on the
second AT-8024, port 13 to port 22, and so on.

❑ You can create a port trunk of optional GBIC modules installed in

the Port A and Port B slots of an AT-8024GB switch.

❑ You can create a port trunk of the fiber optic ports in an

AT-8026FC switch.
