I'm new to the community and I would like some advice with the folowing: I'm about to replace a couple of old netgear switches with 2 x PC6248 with stack modules. I'm thinking I can use this as our core with servers plugged into each switch and an uplink to our firewall. I also have 3 layer 2 netgear switches which our desktops are connected to, and I'm thinking I can connect each one to each dell for resilience and maybe use LAG for better throughput. Does that all sound possible and a good idea or am I way off with my planning. Just wondered what other peoples thoughts were and what they would do in this situation?
Apologies for the delay in response. I have configered 3 LAG's to connect to 3 other switchces and I'll hopefully be testing them later this week during a scheduled outage. Any receommednations for setting a gateway on the switch to make use of the Layer 3 capability?

Excellent. Can I add multiple ports to that LAG to allow a better uplink?
