D-Link DES-3326SR Layer 3 Switch
Switch Stacking
The optional Stacking Module allows up to thirteen DES-3326SR Switches to be interconnected via their
individual Stacking Modules. This forms a thirteen-switch stack that can then be managed and configured as
thought the entire stack were a single switch. The switch stack is then accessed through a single IP address or
alternatively, through the master switch’s serial port (via the management station’s console and the switch’s
Command Line Interface).
The stacking ports are marked
IN
and
OUT
. The IEEE 1394 compliant cable must be connected from an
IN
port on one switch to an
OUT
port on the next switch in the stack. In this way, a loop is made such that all of
the switches in the switch stack have the
IN
stacking port connected to another switch’s
OUT
stacking port. See
Connecting Stacked Switch Groups on page 23 for an illustration of a properly connected stack.
Stack order can be automatically determined, the lowest MAC address is elected as the Master Switch and the
remaining stack order depends on how the Switches are connected. However, it may be best to configure a
Master for the group first using the CLI interface, and then connect the stack accordingly.
NOTE:
Stacking mode is configured using the CLI command
config
stacking mode
.
The default settings allow the switch to function as a
standalone device or as a member of a stacked group.
