Stacking Commands
Stacking is supported on the FN410S and FN410T cards with ports 9 and 10 as the stack ports. Stacking is limited to six Aggregators
in the same or dierent chassis in a single stack.
Stacking provides a single point of management and NIC teaming for high availability and higher throughput. To congure an
Aggregator stack, you must use the CLI.
The stacking commands are always available and operational. You can use the commands to pre-congure an Aggregator, so that the
conguration settings are invoked when the Aggregator is attached to other Aggregator blades.
For more information about using the Aggregator stacking feature, refer to the Stacking Aggregators chapter in the Dell Networking
OS Conguration Guide for the FN I/O Aggregator.
You can use the following commands to manage a stack of Aggregator I/O modules:
• power-cycle stack-unit
• reset stack-unit
• show system stack-ports
• show system stack-unit stack-group
• stack-unit iom-mode
power-cycle stack-unit
To hard reset any stack unit including master unit.
