I'm sorry about asking this on this mailing-list, but I don't know where to do. A Trunk link in Annex D is said to be "a LAN segment used for multiplexing VLANs between VLAN Bridges". It means that a trunk link should be between VLAN bridges. then, what do you call the shared link which has only one VLAN Bridge and many VLAN-aware end stations attached to it? I think this also looks like a trunk link. Considering the following paragraph in D.1.1, Annex D, I might be wrong. "The Trunk Link in Figure D-1 is a point-to-point LAN segment; there are therefore exactly two VLAN-aware Bridges attached to this Trunk. A Trunk Link could also be a shared medium LAN segment that has many VLAN-aware Bridges atached to it" Eunah Kim - spamcontrol -
