Configuring the WSM using Device Manager

Port trunking

Trunk groups provide bandwidth connections between the WSM and the 8600. A trunk is a group of ports that act together, combining their bandwidth to create a single, larger port. Up to four trunk groups can be configured on the WSM, with the following restrictions: 

• A physical WSM port can belong to no more than one trunk group.
• Up to four ports can belong to the same trunk group.
• Best performance is achieved when all ports in a trunk group are configured for the same speed.

The Device Manager Trunks tab supports:

• Viewing trunk group configurations
• Configuring a trunk group
• Deleting a trunk group
• Filtering table content
