3. Provison the new switch on the existing stack.
4. Set stack member number and priority on new switch.

Is 2960X stack module hot swappable?

1) FlexStack-Plus Module (C2960X-STACK) The FlexStack-Plus module is hot swappable and it can be added to any Cisco 2960-X or Catalyst 2960-XR with a FlexStack-Plus slot. It will automatically upgrade to the stack’s Cisco IOS Software version and transparently join the stack switch.

How do I change the stack master on a Cisco 2960?

How do I add a switch to an existing stack?

For adding a switch to the stack follow these steps:

1. Step 1) On the new switch give the global command: switch stack-member-number provision type.
2. switch 3 provision ws3750g-24t.
3. Step 2) Power off the new stack member.
4. Step 3) Connect the new member to the Cisco stack using the stacking cables, 1 loop at a time.

Are Cisco 2960 switches stackable?

Up to eight Cisco Catalyst 2960-X or 2960-XR Series Switches can be stacked, with a single management and control plane. The FlexStack extended module uses the same rules for stack master election as FlexStack plus switches.

How long does it take to stack a catalyst 2960?

In a mixed stack of Catalyst 2960-X and Catalyst 2960-S switches, stack convergence time is increased from milliseconds to 1 to 2 seconds. As with the stacking of 2960S or 3750, network professionals do not need to configure the switches. The stacking is done automatically by the switch by connecting the FlexStack or StackWise cables.

Is the catalyst 2960-x switch stack manager supported?

Stacking is not supported on switches running the LAN Lite image. All switches in the stack must be running the LAN Base image. In a mixed stack of Catalyst 2960-X and Catalyst 2960-S switches, the number of supported stack members is reduced from eight to four.

What’s the difference between flexstack + and 2960x?

The 2960X allows stacking of up to eight switches and can provide up to 80 Gbps bandwidth with FlexStack+. Since 2960S can only stack up to four and provides up to 40 Gbps bandwidth, both switches are architecturally different and one would think that it shouldn’t stack – but, it does.

What are the specs of Cisco Catalyst 2960s?
