Using VLANs, Spanning Tree, Hunt Groups, and VTP Snooping
Hunt Group Configuration Considerations
Consider the following before creating hunt groups:
■ Hunt group end to end physical connections must be
configured with the hunt group ports connected to hunt group
ports.
■ All ports of the hunt group must be of the same bandwidth and
all layer 2 or all layer 3 ports (but not a mix)
■ Can have a mix of 80 and 50 series as long as they are the same
bandwidth and all layer 2 or all layer 3. (but not a mix)
■ A hunt group cannot be distributed between more than two
switches.
■ You must disable or disconnect the ports in a hunt group until
both ends of the link are configured.
■ All ports in the hunt group take on the configuration of the
base port
■ Both sides of the hunt group have the same configuration
■ Any change to a port in the hunt group will be reflected on all
ports.
■ When removing a port from a hunt group with the Web Agent,
it must be removed before its VLAN assignment is changed.
■ If 48-port mode is enabled on the switch, only the first thirteen
hunt groups are retained and all others are discarded. However,
the ports associated with the discarded hunts groups lose their
hunt group bindings, but still retain their VLAN bindings, and
are still active as VLAN bridges. Spanning tree may or may not,
due to the topology or spanning tree settings on those ports,
decide to forward traffic over unwanted trunks.
