Menu: Viewing and Configuring a Static Trunk Group
Important
Configure port trunking
before
you connect the trunked links to another
switch, routing switch, or server. Otherwise, a broadcast storm could occur.
(If you need to connect the ports before configuring them for trunking, you
can temporarily disable the ports until the trunk is configured. See “Using the
CLI To Configure Ports” on page 9-8.)

This procedure uses
the Port/Trunk Settings screen to configure a static port trunk group on the
switch.
