Hi,


First time I made stack configuration. I create add 2 logial stack-port with 1 physical member interface. 

SW1

interface stack-port 0/1

 port interface 40GE0/0/1 enable

interface stack-port 0/2

 port interface 40GE0/0/2 enable

 

SW2

interface stack-port 0/1

 port interface 40GE0/0/1 enable

interface stack-port 0/2

 port interface 40GE0/0/2 enable


Stack is working after that.  One of them is master and other one is standby.

[SW1] dis stac

Stack mode: Service-port

Stack topology type: Link

Stack system MAC: .....

MAC switch delay time: 10 min

Stack reserved VLAN: 4093

Slot of the active management port: --

Slot      Role        MAC Address      Priority   Device Type

-------------------------------------------------------------

0         Master      .....                    100        S6730-S24X6Q

1         Standby     .....                 100        S6730-S24X6Q



My question starts here. When I check display interface brief, below interfaces are up. Before stack there is no 1/0/X ports. I don't understand why it will created after stack. New ports shown in dis int br after stack.


40GE0/0/1                   up    up           0%     0%          0          0

40GE0/0/2                   down  down         0%     0%          0          0

40GE1/0/1                   down  down         0%     0%          0          0

40GE1/0/2                   up    up           0%     0%          0          0

40GE1/0/3                   down  down         0%     0%          0          0

Hi @tolga

This is the output of Stack Working process.As you know stack aggreagtes more than one swithces into together and making 1 aggregated switch.Stack protocol assigns Stack Switch ID in order to seperate stack switch members.In this way you can understand which port belongs which pyhsical device

For example in your question if the interfaces aren't seperated,there would be 2 same named interface like 0/0/1 and 0/0/1 so in this situation how can you understand which of these ports belong to which physical device ?

Stack assigning different slot id's to switches and named interfaces from the strach in order to help you to understand which port belongs to which physical device

Gig1/0/1 : Slot ID 1 device , 0 interface card 2. Port
Gig0/0/1 : Slot ID 0 device , 0 interface card 1. Port

Have a nice day !

Hi,

Please keep different interfaces of primary and secondary switches in stack because if primary interface of switch is same is secondary switch interface, it will create problems.

Hello,


After the stack is created, you can see the slot number is changed for the slave from 0 to 1.

[SW1] dis stac

Stack mode: Service-port

Stack topology type: Link

Stack system MAC: .....

MAC switch delay time: 10 min

Stack reserved VLAN: 4093

Slot of the active management port: --

Slot      Role        MAC Address      Priority   Device Type

-------------------------------------------------------------

0         Master      .....                    100        S6730-S24X6Q

1         Standby     .....                 100        S6730-S24X6Q



So the interfaces will change the slot in their name, from 0/0/1 to 1/0/1. First number is the slot ID, which is 0 for the Master(0/0/1 - 0/0/48) and 1 for the Slave(1/0/1 - 1/0/48). The stack features doubles the number of ports of a switch basically so they need to have different names to differentiate them. 


Hope it's clear the process.
