A trunk to connect the switches
A router to connect the switches
A bridge to connect the switches
A VLAN configured between the switches
Host IDs
usernames
IP addresses
MAC addresses
To allow switches to share a trunk link with nontrunking clients
To allow clients to see the 802.1Q header
To provide inter-VLAN communications over a bridge
To load-balance traffic between parallel links using STP
To provide trunking between Cisco switches and other vendor switches
Allows trunking to provide redundancy
Minimizes redundancy on a switched network
Allows you to run several VLANs over a single trunk
D) minimizes misconfigurations and configuration inconsistencies
