Stacking LAG
When multiple links are used between stack units, Dell EMC Networking OS automatically bundles them in a stacking LAG to provide
aggregated throughput and redundancy.
The stacking LAG is established automatically and transparently by Dell EMC Networking OS (without user conguration) 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 device supports stacking in a ring or a daisy chain topology.
Dell EMC Networking recommends the ring topology when stacking the switches to provide redundant connectivity.
