Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Can we have more than 1 trunk between switches?
A
Yes
B
No
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -That would create a trunk group “trk1” consisting of ports 1 and 2 using LACP. You would create an LACP group on the other switch as well. TRUNK ports, not “truck” ports. And yes, a managed switch can have as many trunk ports as there is room for on the chassis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Unlike an access port, a trunk port can transmit data from multiple VLANs. If you have a dozen VLANs on a particular switch, you don’t need additional cables or switches for each VLAN-just that single link. A trunk port allows you to send all those signals for each switch or router across a single trunk link.

Detailed explanation-3: -A trunk is a point-to-point link between one or more Ethernet switch interfaces and another networking device such as a router or a switch. Ethernet trunks carry the traffic of multiple VLANs over a single link, and you can extend the VLANs across an entire network.
