Setting up Trunks and exec banners

I had to set up a lapsafe in the library this week. I had to configure the link between the lapsafe switch to one of the other switches in the cabinet by creating a trunk link and making sure only certain vlans were on the trunk port.

I also wanted a way to be able to tell which room these switches were going to be so manage to put in a useful command:

lapsafe_switch(config)#exec banner
Enter TEXT message. End with the character '^'
This lapsafe switch is in Classroom 102
^

Now I am able to log on to the various lapsafe switches knowing which room they are in.
