Christina, I don't really use this functionality but I read this sentence in the config guide for it which might shed some light on why a trunk is needed:
A rogue client connected to the rogue access point information is used to track the switch port to which the rogue access point is connected in the network. If it's an access port, the client will not be seen...

We already have Auto Switch Port Trace feature enabled, but I discovered today why it hasn't been working. According to the Cisco documentation, "Switch port configuration—Trunking switch ports must be correctly configured. Switch port security must be disabled." So, as we have port-security enabled on all switch ports (so that we can control/monitor the personal switches on campus and ResNet), switch port trace is NOT working. My question to you guys is WHY is there this dependency? My google-foo is coming up with no explanation.
