The physical location of the switches in a Virtual Chassis is restricted only by the maximum
length supported for cables to connect the VCPs.
The following illustrations show various Virtual Chassis cabling configuration examples.
NOTE: For increased availability and redundancy, we recommend that you
always configure your Virtual Chassis in a ring topology.
