In addition to their working as individual stand-alone switches OmniSwitch 6350 switches can also be
linked together to work as a single virtual chassis known as a stack. With stacks, users can easily expand
their switching capacity simply by adding additional switches to the stack. In addition, stacks provide
enhanced resiliency and redundancy features. For more information, refer to
In This Chapter
