Trunk/lacp other name than "trk<num>"

I have 3 types of switches: 

HP 5406

HP 8212

HP 2510

 

I want to make trunk on ports but with my names variation and not "trk1" trk2" etc..

 

This is the command "trunk <port number> trk1 lacp"

 

there is option to make trunk on some ot the above switches with different names of trunk?

 

Thanks!

I don't believe this is possible.  See the management and configuration guide for the 5400 & 8200 for more info.

As you have already discovered, it is not possible to vary the trunk IDs from Trk1, Trk2, etc.

 

However, you can name the interfaces that make up trunk. So when you view the trunks, you can see the interface names too.

interface B1
   name "bvenc01 switcha uplink"
   no power-over-ethernet
   untagged vlan 1
   trunk trk1 trunk
   exit
interface B2
   name "bvenc01 switcha uplink"
   no power-over-ethernet
   untagged vlan 1
   trunk trk1 trunk
   exit



core01# sh trunks

  Port | Name                             Type      | Group  Type
  ---- + -------------------------------- --------- + ------ --------
  B1   | bvenc01 switcha uplink           100/1000T | Trk1   Trunk
  B2   | bvenc01 switcha uplink           100/1000T | Trk1   Trunk
  B3   | bvenc01 switchb uplink           100/1000T | Trk2   Trunk
  B4   | bvenc01 switchb uplink           100/1000T | Trk2   Trunk
