The stacking LAG is established automatically and transparently by Dell Networking OS (without user configuration) after peering is detected and behaves as follows: • The stacking LAG dynamically aggregates; it can lose link members or gain new links. • Shortest path selection inside the stack: If multiple paths exist between two units in the stack, the shortest path is used. Supported Stacking Topologies The S4820T supports stacking in a ring or a daisy chain topology. Dell Networking recommends the ring topology when stacking S4820T switches to provide redundant connectivity. Figure 117. S4820T Supported Stacking Topologies 892 Stacking
