Switch S2 is configured as follows:
• Trunk (read only) indicates the trunks (1 to 6) that correspond to the switch
ports specified in the Trunk Members fields.
• Trunk Members (Unit/Port) indicates the ports that can be configured, in
each row, to create the corresponding trunk:
— Ports 25 and 26 are assigned as trunk members of trunk 1.
— 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, which 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.
