Dell N3200-ON Networking N-Series Switches CLI Reference Guide version 6.8.0 - Page 2441

The stack-port configuration mode does not appear in the running config. Use the show switch stack-port command to display configuration and status of stacking ports. Ethernet ports that are configured to operate as stacking ports will show as detached in the show interfaces status command output. Use the show switch command to display information regarding the switches in a stack. Redundant stacking links between any two units must operate at the same speed. The available stacking speeds (and corresponding syntax) varies depending on the switch model. Up to eight stack ports can be configured per stacking unit (four in each direction) on switches with more than two stacking ports. The N3200-ON Series switch supports up to twelve units configured in a stack and can only utilize the rear panel mini-SAS ports for stacking. The N2200-ON Series switch supports up to eight units configured in a stack using the fixed stacking ports. The N1108EP-ON and N1500 Series switches support stacking up to four units in a stack and can utilize pairs of SFP+ ports for stacking. On the N1108EP-ON/N1500 Series switch, configuring an SFP+ port as stacking will always configure the adjacent port on the unit being configured in stacking mode as well (i.e., configuring Te1/0/1 as stacking configures Te1/0/2 as stacking and configuring Te1/0/3 as stacking configures Te1/0/4 as stacking). Changing the stacking link speed requires a reboot of the affected switch. All stacking links in a stack must be configured to use the same speed. Changing the speed of one stacking link changes the speed on the adjacent stack port as well. The connected switch stack port(s) must be similarly configured. It is not possible to operate the stacking links on a switch at different speeds. Clearing the configuration does not affect the stack port speed settings. The use of 10G stacking links on the N3200-ON is not recommended when 100G uplinks are utilized. If packet loss on the stacking links or stack splits are encountered in this configuration, the stacking links must be upgraded to at least 50G. Command History Added the speed parameter in version 6.5. Syntax updated in firmware release 6.6.1. The 100g/10g syntax was added in firmware release 6.6.2. Switch Management Commands 2441
