The following procedures explain how to disable the VCStack feature to
use the switch as a stand-alone unit.
Caution
Disabling the VCStack feature requires resetting the switch. Some
network traffic may be lost if the switch is connected to a live
network. E89
To disable the VCStack feature, perform the following procedure:
1. Start a local management session on the switch. For instructions, refer
to "Starting a Local Management Session" on page 101.
2. At the User Exec mode prompt, enter the SHOW STACK command to
display the status of the VCStack feature on the switch. Figure 57 is an
example of the command.

3. If the Operational Status of the switch is "Stacking Hardware
Disabled," the VCStack feature is already disabled on the unit. You
can use the transceiver slots 17 and 21 with QSFP+ transceivers as
regular networking ports. To use the slots with breakout cables, go to
"Configuring QSFP+ Transceiver Slots 17 and 21 for Breakout Cables"
on page 105. Otherwise, go to Chapter 7, "Cabling the Networking
Ports" on page 109.
4. If the Operational Status is "Standalone Unit," the VCStack feature is
active on the unit. (The "standalone" status means the switch is
functioning as a stack of one switch.) You must disable the feature to
use the switch as a stand-alone unit. Continue with the next step.
1. Move to the Global Configuration mode by entering the ENABLE and
CONFIGURE TERMINAL commands, as shown in Figure 58 on page
104.
