Re: Trunk between 2 switches

This article doesnt mentionned if i must configure the second switch ?
The port 20 in the example is not configured as a trunk port so its means the port 20 is in general mode ?

Hi,

Yes, you have to configure the second switch as well. So, for example if I want to trunk these 3 VLANs between 2 switches: VLAN 10, VLAN 20 and VLAN 30 - then I will have to Tag ("T") those VLANs on each side.

The VLAN mode is set to "General" per default yes.


Cheers
