ExtremeWare and cisco-trunk-like port status
hello,

maybe I can't read the documentation, but - is there any method to put
the port in automatic trunk state ?

I mean, that if I do:
create vlan test
config vlan test tag 10

so, then this vlan will be automatically added to such "trunk" port ?

Simillary to cisco, that if you have hundreds vlans becomes usefull..

Regards,
Marcin

No, there is no such concept with Extreme.

hmm, adding vlan to a port by name is not limitation here.

Imagine this set of commands:
configure port 1:1 trunk
configure port 1:2 trunk
configure port 2:3 trunk
configure vlan test add ports trunk

so, instead of "all" in last line, there could be a "trunk"
this "trunk" would be a macro to 1:1, 1:2, 2:3

this is not a full - cisco like method, but still helpfull

is there anyone that could request such feature ?
