  • Associate hosts A and B with VLAN 10 instead of VLAN 1.
  • Configure either trunk port in the dynamic desirable mode.
  • Include a router in the topology.
  • Remove the native VLAN from the trunk.
  • Add the switchport nonegotiate command to the configuration of SW2.

Explanation: If one trunk port is in auto DTP negotiation mode, a trunk will be formed if the adjacent switch port is placed in trunk or dynamic desirable mode.
