We have a 4250T switch and a 4200G switch. They are linked by using 2 of the gigabit ports on the 4200G to the up link and down link ports on the 4250T. we think we have a problem on the 4250t switch as network connections are lost to workstations connected to this switch on a regular basis. We are thinking about replacing this with another 4200G switch. What is the best way to link two 4200G switches?
The 4200G switches can be connected as the same way you already use, or using CX4 10G 2-Port Local Connection modules. The second option increases the bandwidth and is not too expensive regarding the 10G connection. Then you can create a clustered stack, with a master and a slave switch.
