  • 1.  Trunk/lacp other name than "trk

    Posted Aug 09, 2012 01:42 AM

    I have 3 types of switches: 

    HP 5406

    HP 8212

    HP 2510

     

    I want to make trunk on ports but with my names variation and not "trk1" trk2" etc..

     

    This is the command "trunk <port number> trk1 lacp"

     

    there is option to make trunk on some ot the above switches with different names of trunk?

     

    Thanks!

    I don't believe this is possible.  See the management and configuration guide for the 5400 & 8200 for more info.

    As you have already discovered, it is not possible to vary the trunk IDs from Trk1, Trk2, etc.

     

    However, you can name the interfaces that make up trunk. So when you view the trunks, you can see the interface names too.

    interface B1
       name "bvenc01 switcha uplink"
       no power-over-ethernet
       untagged vlan 1
       trunk trk1 trunk
       exit
    interface B2
       name "bvenc01 switcha uplink"
       no power-over-ethernet
       untagged vlan 1
       trunk trk1 trunk
       exit
    
    
    
    core01# sh trunks

      Port | Name                             Type      | Group  Type
      ---- + -------------------------------- --------- + ------ --------
      B1   | bvenc01 switcha uplink           100/1000T | Trk1   Trunk
      B2   | bvenc01 switcha uplink           100/1000T | Trk1   Trunk
      B3   | bvenc01 switchb uplink           100/1000T | Trk2   Trunk
      B4   | bvenc01 switchb uplink           100/1000T | Trk2   Trunk
