Hi all I have tried to experiment with trunk (to see how it works) and I get this problem.
I issue the command ifconfig trunk0 trunkport pcn0 trunkport pcn1 10.64.15.250 netmask 255.255.254.0 After that I expect my trunk0 to function as a network interface, but it (and my physical interfaces) can not send or receive anything. If I try to ping anyone I get the error message: device is busy. Note the unusual subnet. Is this a possible cause? In any case, what I really need is some more reading material on trunk. Does anyone have a howto, a case study or any other material I can use to add to the knowledge I have already gained from the man pages? Google has made me none the wiser Also let me know if I need to add any info to this post, dmesg, info on network structure etc. Thanks Marius Van Deventer Computer Technician Bytes Technology Group : Systems Integration Tel : +27 39 682 4202 | Fax : +27 39 682 4126 | Cell : +27 82 321 6491 Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Web : www.btgroup.co.za <http://www.btgroup.co.za> Press Office :www.itweb.co.za/office/bytes <file:///C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\mvdeventer\Application%20Data\Mic rosoft\Signatures\www.itweb.co.za\office\bytes> Licensing : www.purelicensing.co.za <file:///C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\mvdeventer\Application%20Data\Mic rosoft\Signatures\www.purelicensing.co.za> Bytes Systems Integration (Pty) Ltd : Registration No: 1995/012031/07 A subsidiary of Bytes Technology Group SA (Pty) Ltd, In association with KAGISO P O Box 4004, Umhlanga, 4350 ,55 Island Circle, Riverhorse Valley, Nandi Drive, South Africa.
