Dell Force10 S4820T S4820T Configuration Guide - Page 920

www.dell.com | support.dell.com • Stacking with 1G interfaces is not supported. • Stacking on the S4810 and S4820T is accomplished through front end user ports on the chassis • All stack units must have the same version of FTOS. S-Series Stacking Installation Tasks • Create an S-Series Stack • Add Units to an Existing S-Series Stack • Remove a Unit from an S-Series Stack • Split an S-Series Stack Create an S-Series Stack Stacking is enabled on the S4810 and S4820T using the front end ports. No configuration is allowed on front end ports used for stacking. Stacking can be made between 10G ports of two units or 40G ports of two units. The stack links between the two units will be grouped into a single LAG. Stack Group/Port Numbers By default, each unit in standalone mode is numbered stack-unit 0. A maximum of eight 10G stack links or two 40G stack links can be made between two units in a stack. The front end ports are divided into 16 stack groups, each with 40G of bandwidth. Stack groups 0 through 11 correspond to 10G stack groups with four ports each. Stack groups 12 to 15 are one 40G port each. The front end ports accommodate SFP, SFP+ and QSFP+. • Ports are divided into 16 stack-groups (0 to 15) as shown in the following example. The stack groups must be of a single speed - either all 10G or all 40G. • stack-group 0 corresponds to ports 0-3, stack-group 1 corresponds to ports 4-7, so on through stack-group 11 • stack-group 12 corresponds to the 40G port 48, stack-group 13 corresponds to port 52, so on through stack group 15. 920 | Stacking
