6 Managing OmniSwitch
6400 Series Stacks
In addition to their working as individual stand-alone switches, OmniSwitch 6400 Series switches can also
be linked together to work as a single virtual chassis known as a
stack
. With stacks, users can easily
expand their switching capacity simply by adding additional switches to the stack. In addition, stacks
provide enhanced resiliency and redundancy features. For more information, refer to
page 6-3
.
Note.
See
Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6400 Series Chassis and Hardware Components,”
for information on
managing OmniSwitch 6400 Series switches in a stand-alone configuration.
Note.
Other stackable Alcatel-Lucent products, such as the OmniSwitch 6850,
cannot
be added to a
stacked OmniSwitch 6400 Series virtual chassis.
