Troubleshooting Trunks<br />

When troubleshooting a misbehaving trunk link, ensure that the following is<br />

configured identically on both sides of the trunk:<br />

• Mode - both sides must be set to trunk or dynamically negotiated<br />

• Frame-tagging protocol - ISL, 802.1Q, or dynamically negotiated<br />

• Native VLAN<br />

• VTP Domain<br />

• Allowed VLANs<br />

If the above parameters are not set identically on both sides, the trunk link<br />

will never become active.<br />

To view whether a port is an access or trunk port (such as fa0/5):<br />

Switch# show interface fa0/24 switchport<br />

Name: Fa0/24<br />

Switchport: Enabled<br />

Administrative Mode: trunk<br />

Operational Mode: trunk<br />

Administrative Trunking Encapsulation: dot1q<br />

Operational Trunking Encapsulation: dot1q<br />

Negotiation of Trunking: On<br />

Access Mode VLAN: 1 (default)<br />

Trunking Native Mode VLAN: 42<br />

<br />

To view the status of all trunk links:<br />

Switch# show interface trunk<br />

Port Mode Encapsulation Status Native VLAN<br />

Fa0/24 on 802.1q trunking 42<br />

Port Vlans allowed on trunk<br />

Fa0/24 1,100-4094<br />

Port Vlans allowed and active in management domain<br />

Fa0/24 1,100<br />

Port Vlans in spanning tree forwarding state and not pruned<br />

Fa0/24 1,100<br />

If no interfaces are in a trunking state, the show interface trunk command<br />

will return no output.<br />
