This procedure explains how to disable a port trunk. 

Before you disable or modify a port trunk, disconnect all of the 
cables from the ports of the trunk. Leaving the cables connected 
during the reconfiguration of a trunk can create loops in your 
network topology. Loops can result in broadcast storms which can 
severely limited the effective bandwidth of your network.

To disable a port trunk, perform the following procedure:

1. Disconnect all of the Ethernet cables from the ports of the trunk.

2. Select the Bridge folder.

The Bridge folder expands.

3. From the Bridge folder, select the Trunk Config folder.

The Trunk Config folder expands.

4. From the Trunk Config folder, select Trunking.

The Trunking Page is shown in Figure 31 on page 99.

5. To disable a port trunk, select Disable from the pull-down menu next 

to the trunk that you want to disable.

6. Click Apply.

7. From the main menu on the left side of the page, select Save 

Configuration to Flash to permanently save your changes.

8. Modify the port trunk configuration in the same way on the other 

switch.
