You can connect two units with two or more stacking cables in case of a stacking port or cable failure. Removal of only one of
the cables does not trigger a reset.
Important Points to Remember
● You can stack up to six systems.
● You cannot stack one system with other system types.
● You cannot enable stacking and virtual link trunking (VLT) simultaneously on the device. To convert a stacked unit to VLT,
see Reconfiguring Stacked Switches as VLT.
● When using the 40G ports, you can configure a single port as a stack port; each 40G port is a stack-group.
● All stack units must have the same version of Dell EMC Networking OS.
Stacking Installation Tasks
The following are the stacking installation tasks.
● Create a Stack
● Add Units to an Existing Stack
● Split a Stack
Create a Stack
Stacking is enabled on the device using the front end ports.
No configuration is allowed on front end ports used for stacking. Stacking can be made between 40G ports of two units. The
stack links between the two units are grouped into a single LAG.
Stack Group/Port Numbers
By default, each unit in Standalone mode is numbered stack-unit 0.
A maximum of six 40G stack links can be made between two units in a stack. The front end ports are divided into 32 stack
groups, each with 40G of bandwidth.
The front end ports accommodate QSFP+.
● Ports are divided into 32 stack-groups (0 to 31) as shown in the following example.
○ stack-group 0 to 31 corresponds to 32 40 gig ports
