Mixed stack made of X460-G2-48t-10GE4 and X440-24x-20G

[Robert_Zdzieblo]

Hello,

Can I form stack using two X460-G2-48t-10GE4 units and two X440-24x-10G ?
I have 2 VIM-2ss cards in X460 units and total of 8 SR SFP+ modules. I would like to use 2 VIM cards + 1 cable and 6 pcs. of SR SFP+ modules as alternate 10G stack-v ports to form a ring.
This equipment is already bought and there is no real chance to replace the hardware (unless it's faulty, of course).
Did anyone make such a stack (or similar) working ?
I know that theoretically this can be possible, but can anyone confirm ?

BEST REGARDS, Robert

Hello Robert

This is explained in the SummitFamily_HW_install guide that you can download from our website here http://documentation.extremenetworks.com/summit/Summit_Family_HW_Install/Switch_ovrvu/summit-family-...

there is a section about building stacks and provides examples using stacking ports and Alternate ports.

Hope this helps

Hello Robert,

I have not set this up myself. If you want you can check this out in our stacking tool. It lets you simulate building a physical stack and will let you know if there are any caveats:

Paired up with this document explaining how to use it:
