Figure 47-6. Accessing Non-Master Units on a Stack via the Console Port
Stacking Cable Redundancy
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 - S4810 Stacking
• For S4810 stacking using 40GE ports, any remaining 40 GE ports should not be configured as
quad-mode.
• You may stack up to six S4810 systems
• The S4810 cannot be stacked with other system types.
• Stacking and Virtual Link Trunking (VLT)
cannot be enabled simultaneously on the S4810.
• Data ports are configured as stacking ports in predefined groups of 4-10G ports called stack-groups.
When using the 40G ports, a single port can be configured as a stack port; each 40G port is a
stack-group.
• All the ports in a stack-group are placed in stacking mode. Unused ports in that group cannot be used
as data ports.
• The stack-group must contain only ports of the same type (all 10G or all 40G).
• Stacking with 1G interfaces is
not supported.
• Stacking on the S4810 is accomplished through front end user ports on the chassis
• All stack units must have the same version of FTOS.
