Stack Trunks of 5Gbps Copper Ports
The 10Gbps SFP+ ports S1 and S2 are not the only ports you can use for
a trunk of a stack. If you prefer to use the 10Gbps SFP+ ports for other
functions you can use the 5Gbps Multi-speed copper ports for the trunk
instead. You can use up to eight 5Gbps Multi-speed ports per switch for
the trunk. As with a trunk based on 10Gbps SFP+ ports, the more 5Gbps
Multi-speed ports a trunk has, the greater its bandwidth.
Here are the guidelines:
 Requires AlliedWare Plus v5.5.1-1.2 or later.
 Stacks can have up to eight switches.
 Here are the Multi-speed ports.
– x530-10GHXm: 1 to 8
– x530-18GHXm: 1 to 16
– x530-28GTXm: 21 to 24
– x530-28GPXm: 21 to 24
– x530-52GTXm: 41 to 48
– x530-52GPXm: 41 to 48
 You designate the stack ports with the STACKPORT command.
 Once ports are designated as trunk ports, you cannot view or
change their parameter settings.
 The ports have to stay at the default configurations.
