Hey there Lim,
As the command "switchport mode trunk" is in there, only "switchport
trunk" commands will be taken into account.
If it were "switchport mode access" then the "switchport access"
commands would be taken into account.
If it were set to dynamic mode, then it depends what kind of port it
thinks it is, as to which commands are used.
On this example, the switchport access vlan 567 will not be taken into
account, but the vlan WILL be created. If you needed the trunk port to
carry non vlan info, then you'd need a native vlan in there - which is a
switchport trunk command.
Hope this helps.
