Define Trunk

[lynneshri]

Dear All,

We recently bought 5 Cisco C9200 switches, and we configured them as a stack. My question is, is there a different command for trunking when the switch is configured in stack mode? I want to configure the uplink port (Active Switch) as a trunk on the active switch and then I can configure different ports from switch 1,2,3,4 and 5 for different VLANs and then I can connect my devices to these ports.

Please let me know if I am on the right path.

Thanks in advance.

Lynnshri.

Hi @lynneshri 

 No, the trunk configuration is exactly the same for stack and non stack switch

 Just get in the interface mode and use the commamd switchport  mode trunk

Hello @lynneshri,

Right! The configuration for trunking remains the same as when configuring a standalone switch. You can configure the uplink port on the active switch as a trunk and then assign different ports on each switch in the stack to different VLANs.

Thank you very much.

You're welcome @lynneshri

There no different at all between standalone and stack SW trunk config.

Select right port and config it as trunk.

In a stack, the only difference you should see is interface numbering prefixed with stack member number.
