Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP)

Introduction

Hierarchical Navigation

Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP). If a port can become a trunk, it may also have the ability to trunk automatically, and in some cases even negotiate what type of trunking to use on the port. DTP provides this ability to negotiate the trunking method with the other device.
