stack
Stack management: Uses a single
IP address and standard network
cabling to manage a group (up to
16) of switches in the same IP
subnet (broadcast domain),
resulting in a reduced number of IP
addresses and simplified
management of small workgroups
for scaling your network to handle
increased bandwidth demand.
