I'm trying to put together a reference to trunking in regards to ethernet networks, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to integrate it into this article and not introduce confusion, since traditional circuit-switched telecommunications and packet-switched ethernet networking use terms like "switch" and "trunk" differently.

Ethernet port trunking likely best floating off on its own as a separate topic, with a reference to it on this page.

I'm not sure which trunking definition is more popular in terms of common usage. Certainly the circuit-switched definition is older, but it seems to be falling out of use in favor of packet-switched network terminology, as VoIP and broadband takes over as major telecomm services vs basic phone service.

[edit] trunk line

Trunk line redirects here, but the article doesn't mention it. This is unfortunate. Harley peters 06:02, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
