Layer 2 question on trunks

Hi Group,

I was going through the ipexpert wb's solution and
found this

=====
interface FastEthernet0/6
 description Connected to R6
 switchport access vlan 567 <<=========
 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 56,76
 switchport mode trunk
 no ip address
=====

it just seems werid to have a vlan assign to a trunk
port.

btw, this vlan(vlan 567) is not a requirement and it
is not created, just assigned to the port

I just wanna confirm if its right to say trunk ports
should not be assign a vlan, they are there to carry
vlan info across the layer 2 domain.

Thanks for any feedback.

Lim
