I have a x460-g2-48p-10ge4 with a vim-2q and a x450-g2-48p-10ge4 with the v84 SummitStack ports in the back. Both switches are running 16.1.1.4.
I am pretty confident I can stack the switches using alternate 10g stack ports 51 & 52 using a sfp+ twinax cable. Is it possible to stack the switches using s2 on the vim-2q of the x460-g2 and s1/2 on the v84 of the x460-g2 using a qsfp+ twinax cable? I am also planning on using s1 on the vim-2q as a 40g uplink to my network.
The table found
here is not updated for the x460-g2 yet.
The 16.1 User Guide found
here seems to indicate that stacking between the V84 and vim-2q is possible although it is not very clear and refers to the previously mentioned Hardware Guide that does not mention the x450-g2 that I can find:
- Summit X450G2 switches support multiple types of QSFP+ stacking cables for connection between VIM-2q ports and QSFP+ ports on other Summit switches. For information on which cables to use with each type of Summit family switch, see the Summit Family Switches Hardware Installation Guide.
Both switches show s1/2 available as native stacking ports. I do not receive a link light when I connect the switches together using port s1/2 and a qsfp+ twinax cable.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Jeff
