3.4 Typical Topology of a Stack
This section describes two typical topologies of a stack.
Ring Topology
The typical topology of a stack is a ring topology. As shown in Figure 3-3, stack interfaces on
the Switches are connected through leased stack cables.
NOTE
Do not directly connect stack ports on the same switch to form a loop.

Link Topology
As shown in Figure 3-4, stack interfaces on the Switches are connected through leased stack
cables.
NOTE
Do not directly connect stack ports on the same switch to form a loop.
