41 Stacking Dell Networking Switches: N4032, N4032F, N4064, N4064F
Use the freed cables or new cables to connect the two switches together that were previously adjacent to
the switch being removed. Since there are multiple interface and cable types supported for stacking, a
different set of cables may be required to make this connection.

SWITCH REMOVED
FROM STACK
Removal of a stack unit Figure 14
Removal of a stack unit results in one or more freed cables. In this example, a single cable (red) that was
used to link Unit 2 to Unit 3 has been freed up. The other cable that was going from Unit 1 to Unit 2, is
now used to connect Unit 1 to Unit 3, using the same stack ports that were used initially to once again
complete the ring topology. Move this cable to complete the stack unit removal process.
2.5.1.2 Validation
To validate the stack unit has been removed and that the remaining stack members are still intact, type the
show switch command.
