Note on Terminology. In the user guides provided with your OmniSwitch 6800 Series switch, the terms
stack and virtual chassis are interchangeable terms referring to OmniSwitch 6800 Series switches in a
stacked configuration. The terms module, switch, slot and element are used to refer to individual switches
within a stacked configuration. The terms Chassis Management Module (CMM) and management module
refer to those switches operating in a stack either in primary or secondary management roles. OmniSwitch
6800 Series switches operating in an idle role are essentially acting as network interface modules and
therefore may be referred to as Network Interfaces (NIs).
