Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series Switch

1-64

302401-D Rev 00

Ports 1 and 3 are assigned as trunk members of trunk 2.

STP Learning indicates the spanning tree participation setting for each of the
trunks:

Trunks 1 and 2 are enabled for Normal STP Learning.

Trunk Mode (read only) indicates the Trunk Mode for each of the trunks:

The Trunk Mode field values for trunks 1 and 2 are set to Basic. Source MAC
addresses are statically assigned to specific trunk members for flooding and
forwarding. This allows the switch to stabilize and distribute the data streams
of source addresses across the trunk members.

Trunk Status indicates the Trunk Status for each of the trunks. When set to
Enabled, the configuration settings for that specific trunk are activated.

Trunk Name indicates optional fields for assigning names to the
corresponding configured trunks.

The names chosen for this example provide meaningful information to the
user of this switch (for example, S2:T2 to S1 indicates that Trunk 1, in switch
S2, connects to Switch 1).
