Command Usage

•

When configuring static trunks, you may not be able to link switches of different types,
depending on the vendor’s implementation.

•

To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you add a static trunk via the configuration
interface before connecting the ports, and also disconnect the ports before removing a static
trunk via the configuration interface.
