Lab Objective:

This lab aims to demonstrate the configuration of trunk ports to allow the passage of VLAN traffic between switches and devices, ensuring roper connectivity and efficient network segmentation.

Additionally, the objective includes verifying the trunk configuration to confirm correct VLAN propagation and ensure seamless communication between devices in different VLANs.

Through this lab, participants will gain practical experience in configuring and troubleshooting trunk links in a network topology comprising distribution and access layer switches.
