– Down — Indicates that the trunk is currently not operating.
• Current Trunk Status — Indicates whether the trunk is currently operational or non-operational. The
possible field values are:
– Up — Indicates the trunk is currently operating.
– Down — Indicates the trunk is currently not operating.
• Reactivate Suspended — Reactivates suspended trunks. The possible field values are:
– Checked — Reactivates the selected suspended trunk.
– Unchecked — Maintains the trunk status. This is the default value.
• Operational Status — Indicates the trunk operational status. Possible field values are:
– Suspended — The trunk is currently active, and is not receiving or transmitting traffic.
– Active — Indicates the trunk is currently active and is receiving and transmitting traffic.
– Disable — Indicates the trunk is currently disabled, and is not receiving or transmitting traffic.
• Admin Speed — Indicates the configured rate for the trunk. The trunk type determines what speed setting
options are available. Admin speed can only be designated when the trunk is disabled.
• Current Trunk Speed — Displays the configured rate for the trunk. The trunk type determines the speed
settings available. trunk speeds can only be configured when auto-negotiation is disabled. The possible field
values are:
– 10 — Indicates the trunk is currently operating at 10 Mbps.
– 100 — Indicates the trunk is currently operating at 100 Mbps.
– 1000 — Indicates the trunk is currently operating at 1000 Mbps.
• Duplex Mode — Displays the trunk duplex mode. This field is configurable only when auto negotiation is
disabled, and the trunk speed is set to 10M or 100M. This field cannot be configured on LAGs. The possible
field values are:
– Full — The interface supports transmission between the device and its link partner in both directions
– simultaneously.
– Half — The interface supports transmission between the device and the client in only one direction at a
time.
• Auto Negotiation — Displays the auto negotiation status on the trunk. Auto negotiation is a protocol
between two link partners that enables a trunk to advertise its transmission rate, duplex mode, and flow
control abilities to its partner.
• Current Auto Negotiation — Displays the current Auto Negotiation setting.
• Current Advertisement — Indicates the trunk advertises its speed to its neighbor trunk to start the
negotiation process. The possible field values are those specified in the Admin Advertisement field.
• Neighbor Advertisement — Indicates the neighboring trunk’s advertisement settings. The field values are
identical to the Admin Advertisement field values.
• Advertisement — Defines the auto negotiation setting the trunk advertises. The possible field values are:
– Max Capability — Indicates that all trunk speeds and duplex mode settings are accepted.
– 10 Half — Indicates that the trunk advertises for a 10 Mbps speed trunk and half duplex mode setting.
– 10 Full — Indicates that the trunk advertises for a 10 Mbps speed trunk and full duplex mode setting.
– 100 Half — Indicates that the trunk advertises for a 100 Mbps speed trunk and half duplex mode setting.
– 100 Full — Indicates that the trunk advertises for a 100 Mbps speed trunk and full duplex mode setting.
