Stacking LAG
When multiple links are used between stack units, Dell 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 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 Networking recommends the ring topology when stacking the switches to provide redundant connectivity.
