You can also configure two to eight OmniSwitch 6600 series switches (in any combination of OmniSwitch 6624, 6600-U24, and 6648 switches) into one large virtual chassis known as a stack. With stacks, you can easily expand your switching capacity simply by adding additional switches.
Stack Overview Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Stacking Resiliency and Redundancy The figure on page 3-3 shows a sample way to connect switches in a four-switch stack to ensure dualredundant connections. Except for the bottommost switch in the stack, Port 52 is connected to Port 51 on the switch below it with a 30 centimeter stacking cable. On the bottommost switch Port 52 is connected to Port 51 on the topmost switch in the stack with a 1 meter redundant stacking cable.
Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Stack Overview CMM Roles in a Stack When OmniSwitch 6600 series switches operate in a stack, one switch in the stack will always have a primary CMM (Chassis Management Module) software role within the stack. This switch will be responsible for functions such as software and configuration management, web-based management (i.e., WebView), SNMP management, switch diagnostics, and software rollback. Another switch will have a secondary CMM role.

Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Setting Up a Stacked Configuration Connecting Cables to Stacking Ports On OmniSwitch 6624, 6600-U24, and 6648 switches only, note the following important guidelines before connecting stacking cables to stacking modules: • Before attempting to connect OS6624, OS6600-U24, and OS6648 switches in a stacked configuration, be sure that stacking modules are installed in the EXPANSION/STACKING slots of all switches.
Setting Up a Stacked Configuration Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks 2 Next, attach the other end of the cable to a HSSDC connector on the switch immediately below. Repeat this procedure until all switches in the stack are connected (see illustrations a, b, and c below).
Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Setting Up a Stacked Configuration Redundant Stack Connection The figure below shows how the redundant connection (provided by the OS66STK-CBL1M cable) between the top and bottom switches in the stack ensures that data will continue to flow throughout the stack, even in the unlikely event of a connection failure between two switches. No Connection Failure In this example, there is a VLAN with an ingress port on switch 1 and an egress port on switch 2.
Setting Up a Stacked Configuration Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Booting the Stack In order for the switches in the stack to operate using their newly-assigned slot numbers, all switches in the stack must be manually booted. Important. Whenever booting a stacked configuration, note that the primary switch will automatically distribute its system and configuration software to all switches in the stack whenever the virtual chassis boots.
Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Setting Up a Stacked Configuration Idle Status All additional switches with higher numbers will be given idle status. The PRI and SEC LEDs for these switches will be off. Additional LED Descriptions. For complete descriptions of OmniSwitch 6600 series LED states, see “Status LEDs” on page 2-11.
Managing Switches in a Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Managing Switches in a Stack Most Command Line Interface (CLI) commands can be used to configure OmniSwitch 6600 series switches operating in either stand-alone or stack configuration. This section describes how to use CLI commands to manage switches operating in a stack. Note. You must be logged into a switch in a stack with either the primary Chassis Management Module (CMM) or secondary CMM role to use CLI commands.
Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Managing Switches in a Stack Synchronizing Switches in a Stack “CMM” synchronization refers to the process of copying all files in the /flash/working and /flash/ certified directories of the switch with the primary Chassis Management Module (CMM) role to the /flash/working and /flash/certified directories of all the other switches in the stack. (This includes the switch with the secondary CMM role and all the switches with an idle CMM role.
Managing Switches in a Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Changing the Secondary CMM Role to Primary To change a switch with a secondary role to primary use the takeover command. For example, while logged into either the primary or secondary switch enter: -> takeover at the CLI prompt. In a stack consisting of two switches the primary switch will become secondary.
Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Managing Switches in a Stack Resetting All Switches in a Stack To reset all switches in a stack you use the reload all command by entering -> reload all at the CLI prompt. This command can be helpful in restoring the original CMM roles in a stack (see “CMM Role Redundancy” on page 3-5).
Monitoring Stacks Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Monitoring Stacks As shown in the figure below, OmniSwitch 6600 series stacks can be managed and monitored with Command Line Interface (CLI) commands, WebView, SNMP, and OmniVista. See “Monitoring Stack Topology” on page 3-19 for information on monitoring stack configurations and see Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6600 Series Chassis and Hardware Components,” for information on monitoring and monitoring stack temperature and chassis configurations.
Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks Monitoring Stacks In the example on the previous page there are two switches in this stack. Switch 1, which is an OS6648, has the primary CMM role and Switch 2, which is an OS6624, has the secondary CMM role. Switch 1’s left-hand stacking port (Port 51) is connected to Switch 2’s left-hand stacking port (Port 27). Switch 1’s right-hand stacking port (Port 52) is connected to Switch 2’s right-hand stacking port (Port 28).
