sw1-ven-nyc(config-if)#switch trunk encap ?
  dot1q  Interface uses only 802.1q trunking encapsulation when trunking
  isl    Interface uses only ISL trunking encapsulation when trunking

It supports dot1q, you need to setup a port group for the 2 interfaces
though and then configure trunking on that port group.
