<br><tt><font size=2> When referring to Ethernet, 'trunking' generally
refers to a port<br>
which can carry multiple VLANs to an adjacent device (ie. not an<br>
access port). LACP stands for Link Aggregation Control Protocol,
and<br>
is a part of the IEEE specification for link aggregation (formerly<br>
802.3ad, now 802.1AX-2008) whereby multiple physical ports/interfaces<br>
(generally of the same speed) can be bundled together to form a link<br>
whose bandwidth roughly equals the sum of the individual port speeds,<br>
providing for (typically not 50/50) load sharing of the individual<br>
links at layer 2.<br>
You can typically do 'trunking' across an aggregated link (LACP)
bundle.<br>
