A good rule of thumb is this:
Think of the OSI 7 layer model. If you have to connect two devices that are 'peer to
peer'-such as a router to router (L3-L3), hub to hub (L1-L1), or switch to
switch(L2-L2), use a crossover cable. If you connect between layers
(L1-L3/L2-L3/L1-L2), use straight thru. I have found this very helpful.

In my lab there are two (2) 1900's Trunking and in accordance with the documentiation
a CrossOver cable is need.
This was done and worked fine.
Trunking did not work with a Straight. A straight was used and Trucking failed.
