Trunk Between Cisco Catalyst-3560-CX Series Switch & HP Procurve 2510-48 Switch

[vdj3000]

Hello Everyone,

 I want to configure trunk between Cisco Catalyst-3560-CX Series Switch (Layer 3 Switch) which has 12 Gigabit ethernet ports & HP Procurve 2510-48 Switch (Layer 2 Switch) which has 48 Fast ethernet ports. Both are manageable switch. However cisco is Gigabit ethernet and HP is Fast ethernet. I have 6 VLANs on cisco switch. I want to create trunk between Cisco and HP switch. I dont want to create VLANs on HP switch. I just want to trunk between them without creating VLANs on HP switch. How to verify if trunk is working fine after configuration.

Following has been configured on cisco switch
