ExtremeSwitching X690 Stacking

ExtremeSwitching X690 series switches can be stacked with other X690 switches and with X870 switches. They support native stacking using front-panel data ports 61 and 69.

Note

The front-panel ports used for stacking on the X690 switch are located side by side, rather than above and below as on most other switch models.

Alternate stacking is not supported for X690 switches.

The stacking-support option is disabled by default for all X690 switches. For more information, see Enabling and Disabling the Stacking-Support Option.
