There is nothing different from a 10Mb Ethernet interface and 100Mb
Ethernet interface when it comes to being able to use trunking. If a
100Mb Ethernet interface can add the 802.1q tags to a packet and send it
out on the wire so can a 10Mb Ethernet interface. It just means that
anything on that wire needs to understand the 802.1q tags or they will
get very confused. I never could understand the Cisco limitation that
only 100Mb and faster Ethernet interfaces could support trunking.

I beg to differ. You used to be right. However, someone posted here
awhile
back about trunking on a 10Base interface, using dot1q. We were curious
enough to duplicate this in our lab....and it worked. It floored me.
So,
you can trunk on 10base ethernet interfaces. There may be some code
minimums there, like enterprise, etc. I would have to ask my co-worker
which version he used. Of course, CCO has zero documentation on this
and
always refers to using Fast Ethernet ports to trunk.

2501 will not trunk. You will need a 2620 at minimum. Trnking requires
a
100Mb ethernet interface.
