VLAN question.
If I were given the task of making a port on a switch a trunked port, like a 1900 switch, can any port become a trunked port?

Trunk ports allow VLAN information to traverse between two switches. The ISL tagging info is left intact between the two segments. An access port would remove that info before it leaves the switch. Does this help??

Trunking (also called port agregation) can be used to combine multiple lines into a single high speed port between switches.
For example, I saw an environment where two high-end switches were linked with 4 100Mbps cables, full duplex, for a total bandwidth of 400Mbps between switches.
Pretty cool stuff.
