N4032f stacking

Hi guys,

I have to configure a new stack with 2 4032f using only 10Gb interface without any external module.

I saw in the manual the following commands to create the stack:

 

console#config
console(config)#stack
console(config-stack)#stack-port fortygigabitethernet 1/1/1 stack
console(config-stack)#stack-port fortygigabitethernet 1/1/2 stack

 

Do you know if is possible apply this configuration on 4 * 10Gb interfaces ?

E.G.

console#config
console(config)#stack
console(config-stack)#stack-port Tengigabitethernet 1/0/21 stack
console(config-stack)#stack-port Tengigabitethernet 1/0/22 stack

console(config-stack)#stack-port Tengigabitethernet 1/0/23 stack
console(config-stack)#stack-port Tengigabitethernet 1/0/24 stack

If so, Will these interface be displayed in the show running after creating the stack?

 

Thank you

 

P.s. why is it a 4032 if it has only 24 interfaces?

Hi,

I confirm that it is possible to configure 4 x 10 Gb stack connections.

The output shown above was caused by a failure of the switch elected as master.


To solve this problem I had to migrate all the infrastructure on a new stack with updated firmware.

Thanks

Hi,

You can use two ports for a stack but not 4. It is 32 because the 40Gb ports can be split into 4 ports each.

Hi

Do you know if the interfaces configured as a stack will be displayed in the show running?

 

The command are right?

console(config-stack)#stack-port Tengigabitethernet 1/0/23 stack
console(config-stack)#stack-port Tengigabitethernet 1/0/24 stack

 

I have another backup configuration of the same switches configured as a stack, but i can't find these lines on the startup-configuration.

 

Thank you for your help

Do they show under show switch stack-ports? Page 2287 https://dell.to/2KT9uep

Hi, 

"You can use two ports for a stack but not 4"

Are you sure about that?
