    - Provides resilient stacking of up to eight stackable units when the two rear SFP ports are configured for “stacking mode” operation - LEDs on the front panel of the switches indicate “Base Unit” selection and rear stack port Up/Down connection status.

  • Page 26 Figure 4: ERS 3550T and ERS 3550T-PWR+ rear ports For more information on stacking, refer to the following: • The correct Avaya SFP direct attach cable is required in order to enable and use stacking mode. Stacking cables must be ordered separately.
  • Page 27: Stacking Considerations

    SFP+ trunk design Avaya recommends that you alternate MLT or LAG members to every other switch in the stack when using 10G interfaces. This allows a shorter path to be taken across the stacking backplane by access port traffic that more frequently sends data across a trunk link rather than to another access port.
  • Page 28: Auto Unit Replacement

    In these situations, Avaya recommends that you limit the aggregate of MLT and LAG port utilization to 40Gbps. This amount represents any combination of SFP, and or SFP+ interfaces while also adhering to the MLT and LAG scaling limitations.

    Mirror Image is a CFG mirror image for which the associated AU has been removed from the stack. When a CFG mirror image becomes INACTIVE, the INACTIVE CFG mirror image is copied to another unit. July 2015 Getting Started with Avaya ERS 3500 Series Comments on this document? infodev@avaya.com...
