Creating ICX 7150 Stacking Trunks While the Link Is Down

Follow these steps to create a trunk while the link is down.
Note: Use the stack-port command while the link is down to remove stacking trunks and restore individual stacking ports.
  1. Enter global configuration mode.
    ICX7150-24 Router(config)# configure terminal
    
  2. (Optional) Use the show stack command to check the stack topology and status.
    ICX7150-24 Router(config)# show stack

    ID   Type          Role    Mac Address    Pri State   Comment

    2  S ICX7150-48P   standby 748e.f882.e418   0 remote  Ready
    
        standby      active                                                        
         +---+        +---+                                                        
      3/3| 2 |3/1==3/1| 1 |3/3                                                     
         +---+        +---+                                                        
    Will assign standby in 56 sec due to all ready
    
    Standby u2 - protocols ready, can failover
    Current stack management MAC is 00e0.5200.0100
    
    The example shows a two-unit stack with both units in the Ready state. The units are connected by a trunk through stack ports 1/3/1 and 2/3/1.
  3. Enter stack unit configuration mode on the active controller.
    ICX7150-24 Router(config)# stack unit 1
    ICX7150-24 Router(config-unit-1)#
    
  4. Enter the stack-trunk command followed by the range of ports to include in the trunk.
    ICX7150-24 Router(config-unit-1)# stack-trunk ethernet 1/3/3 to 1/3/4
    
    The example creates a two-port stacking trunk containing ports 1/3/3 and 1/3/4.
  5. Create a stacking trunk for the same number of ports at the other end of the planned connection if the trunk has not been created.
    ICX7150-24 Router(config-unit-1)# stack-trunk ethernet 2/3/3 to 2/3/4
    
    The example creates a stacking trunk from ports 2/3/3 and 2/3/4.
  6. (Optional) Enter the show running-config command to check the configuration.
    ICX7150-24 Router(config-unit-1)# show running-config
    Current configuration:
    !
    ver 09.0.00

      priority 128
      stack-trunk ethernet 1/3/1 to 1/3/2
      stack-trunk ethernet 1/3/3 to 1/3/4
    stack unit 2
      module 1 icx7150-48p-poe-port-management-module
      module 2 icx7150-2-copper-port-2g-module
      module 3 icx7150-4-sfp-plus-port-40g-module
      stack-trunk ethernet 2/3/1 to 2/3/2
      stack-trunk ethernet 2/3/3 to 2/3/4
    stack enable
    stack mac 00e0.5200.0100
    !
    !
    end
    
    The example shows the stack with the existing trunk (1/3/1 to 1/3/2 connected to 2/3/1 to 2/3/2) and the trunk added on stack unit 1 and stack unit 2. To create a ring topology, the new trunk on the two stack units could be connected physically.

The following example creates a trunk on stack unit 1 while the link is down.

ICX7150-24 Router(config)# configure terminal
ICX7150-24 Router(config)# show stack
