• Advanced Hybrid—A device in Advanced Hybrid mode can be connected
to other devices of all types to form a stack. In this mode, VRRP and/or RIP
are supported. In this mode, auto numbering of units is not supported,
because only the SG500X devices can function as master/backup.
The master and backup master units must be SG500X devices. Sx500
devices can only be slaves, therefore up to 6 Sx500 units can be stacked
together with two SG500X devices.
