2960 will not allow "switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q" CLI

stepnharp

Level 1

I have a Cisco 2960 switch that is not allowing me to setup switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q on a trunking interface.

The show capabilities shows that the interface can use 802.1q, but when I try to CLI the command the work encapsulation is not an option.

Please advise with a solution.

Thanks, S
