Ive been setting up some vlans on my 3550 switches


The ports f0/1 - 3 function when in access mode but when i change them to trunk i get nothing

ive done the normal

conf t
int f0/1
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk

(same as above for port 3)

but when i do Show interface trunk its blank :confused:

ive made sure the ports are not admin shut down
but when i do show ip int brief they say down down
this is my first time with layer 3 switches is there somthing i have to enable to allow them to trunk?

IOS version 12.1(13)
 
turns out t he 3550 i bought dont have MDIX i did have one cross over cable but i think its a dud ive ordered a few more hopefully this will fix it
