PC6248 stack for core network

Hello,

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?

Regards

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

    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?
