Installing the Switch Installing the Switch Sample Network Topologies Note In the Backbone Switch illustration, the 1000 Mbps fiber-optic connection between the Switch 2824 and the Switch 5304xl is by way of a Gigabit-SX miniGBIC installed in the Switch 2824 and connected to a Gigabit-SX Module in the Switch 5304xl. Stacking the Switch The Switch 2800 Series devices can be connected together, through standard network connections, and managed through a single IP address. Up to 16 switches can be connected together in such a "virtual stack". You identify the switch as the "Commander" and give that switch an IP address. Up to 15 other switches in the network can then easily be configured as Members of the stack and managed through the Commander's IP address. The management includes Telnet access and web browser interface access to the Commander and to each Member switch through the Commander. For more information on stacking Switches, please see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM that came with the switch.
