Definition
You can connect several Switches over a special Port logically together, which gives you the following opportunities:
- One big Switch with a lots of Ports
- One logical Switch
- You only have to manage one switch
- Minimal latency between the devices
Cisco has three difference techniques, FlexStack, StackWise and GigaStack
!!!Note: It works only between the same series!!!
the difference between FlexStack and StackWise
| Cisco Catalyst 2960-S Stacking | Cisco Catalyst 3750-X StackWise | |
| Device limit | 4 units | 9 units |
| Stack bandwidth | 10G/20G | 32G/64G |
| Architecture | Hardware drop table | Ring (destination stripping) |
| Dynamic ring load balancing | No | Yes |
| Stack convergence | 1-2 seconds | Few milliseconds |
| Stack quality of service (QoS) | Applied hop by hop | Applied on ingress |
| Management | Single IP address, SNMP, syslog | Single IP address, SNMP, syslog |
| Configuration | Single config and CLI, auto image and config update | Single config and CLI, auto image and config update |
| Show and debug commands | Unified | Unified |
| Single forwarding and control plane | Synchronize Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), MAC address, Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP), VLAN tables | Synchronize Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), MAC address, Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP), VLAN tables, routing tables |
| Cross-stack features | Yes | Yes |
| Single bridge-ID | Yes | Yes |
| Redundancy | Stack master 1:N redundancy | Stack master 1:N redundancy |
