Stack Management for the 3500, 3500yl, 6200yl and 6600 Switches
Configuring Stack Management
■
Stacking uses only the primary VLAN on each switch in a stack.
■
The primary VLAN can be tagged or untagged as needed in the
stacking path from switch to switch.
■
The same VLAN ID (VID) must be assigned to the primary VLAN in
each stacked switch.
