Displaying Stack Details

A stack is a group of devices that operate as a single chassis. A RUCKUS stack contains 2 to 12 units configured in a ring or linear topology. The units in a stack are from the same model family; for example, a stack can be an stack or an stack, but it cannot combine and devices. Stack members can be physically separated or located together. For example, top-of-rack (ToR) switches can form a stack that acts as a single switch to manage data center access. Stack members can be physically separated, and the distance between stacking members depends on the type of connector cables used.

Complete the following steps to display stack details.

  1. Select Stack.
