Managed Stackable Layer 3 Switches GSM7328S and GSM7352S Hardware Installation Guide Stacking You can connect up to eight switches to form a stack with a single management IP address. The switches automatically select a master unit. Once the master is selected, you can use its console to manage all the switches in the stack. Two of the I/O module slots can be used for stacking, while the remaining two I/O module bays can be used for 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplinks. To set up a stack: 1. Install up to two 24-Gigabit Stackable Modules (AX742) into the high-speed I/O module bays at the front or the rear of each switch. 2. Connect the provided stacking cable between a pair of AX742 modules in each switch within a stack. AX724 stacking cable Figure 3-5 3. Connect each switch to the next in a cascade to build the backplane of the stack. Finally, connect the last switch in the stack to the first switch, to close the ring and provide redundancy and resiliency to the stack. The switches automatically select the master switch in the stack. 4. To use the console and Command Line Interface (CLI), use a serial cable to connect the console to the master switch. This single console connection lets you manage all the switches in the stack. For information about working with the CLI, see the Command Line Interface Reference for the ProSafe 7300S Series Layer-3 Stackable Switches on the NETGEAR CD that shipped with your product.
