To allow traffic from multiple VLANs to be transmitted over a single physical link between two switches, which configuration should be applied to the connecting interfaces?
Configuring the interfaces as trunk ports enables them to carry traffic from multiple VLANs over a single link by tagging frames with VLAN identifiers using the IEEE 802.1Q protocol. Configuring the ports as access ports or routed (L3) ports will not allow traffic from multiple VLANs. SPAN ports are used for mirroring the traffic.
