Trunks
41
• The trunk is a member of VLAN 1 with a PVID of 1. The trunk will accept both tagged
and untagged packets (see VLANS > VLAN Settings)
Ports that are removed from a trunk, retain the configuration (i.e. Speed, Duplex, and Flow
Control) that they had when they were members of the trunk. Ports that are added to the trunk
after its creation, inherit the current configuration of the trunk.

trunk offers a dramatic increase in bandwidth for network segments where bottlenecks exist, as
well as providing a fault-tolerant link between two devices.
