Good evening
I have 3 switches HP 2920-48G (J9729A) . These switches are connected with module HP 2920-2 port stacking module.(9733A).
I need to know how to connect these 3 switches with stacking cable. What is the configuration to connect stacking cable.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: switch stacking
Hi,
No (regarding the similarity between Backplane Stacking and VSF), not the same way.
IMHO neither with Aruba 2920 Backplane Stacking nor when you deploy a VSF you have redundancy globally (both technologies provide a sort of redundancy in themseves)...if you miss to bring into the picture you need something like Distributed Trunking from your other edge Switches or Servers to the Backplane Stack/VSF.
The Aruba 5400R zl2 admits - with very clear restrictions - the deployment of VSF (Virtual Switching Framework) that is a sort of Frontplane Stacking (only involving 10G or 40G ports so forget about simple SFP, you need at least SFP+) as opposed to the Backplane Stacking you do on Aruba 2920 Switches.
We discussed about the redundancy concept (IMHO doing Front/Back-plane Stacking doesn't necessarily mean doing something redundant...but your mileage may vary) here yet, isn't it?
So what do you think about?

Re: switch stacking
Hi Parnassus!
I have 3 HP 5412 switches and I want to stack them together. According to the material I read, this is impossible. So is there any other way?
