Trunking a 3662 Router to a 3550 Switch

[colin.clayton]

Is it possible to trunk two 10/100 Ethernet ports between the 2 standard FE ports on the 3662 Router to 2 FE ports on the 3550 Switch. If so, how?

First, you'll probably need enterprise IOS running on both the 3662 and the 3550 (VLANs and VTP features may be available in other IOS, but I'm not sure).

The 3550 configuration can be found here:

For the 3662, create sub-interfaces on the FE ports, and choose the same encapsulation type (ISL, dot1q, etc ..) as the 3550's.

Hope that helped,
