For more information on VCStack, refer to the Stacking Introduction and Stacking Commands chapters in the Software Reference for GS970EMX Series Switches, AlliedWare Plus Operating System or the Virtual Chassis Stacking Feature Overview and Configuration Guide on the Allied Telesis website.
Chapter 2: Virtual Chassis Stacking Overview The Virtual Chassis Stacking (VCStack) feature allows you connect up to four GS970EMX/20 , GS970EMX/28, and GS970EMX/52 Switches into a virtual stack so that they function as a single networking unit. Here are some of the VCStack benefits: Simplifies management - You can manage the devices as a single ...
CentreCOM GS970EMX Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking Stacking Guidelines Here are general VCStack guidelines: A stack can have up to four GS970EMX Switches. The switches can be the same or different GS970EMX Switch models. VCStack comes standard with the AlliedWare Plus management ...
The GS970EMX Switches do not support the 7-meter SP10TW7 cable. The fiber optic transceivers or direct attach cables for the trunk must be from Allied Telesis. For a list of supported transceivers, refer to the product’s data sheet on the Allied Telesis web site.
CentreCOM GS970EMX Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking Figure 12 to Figure 14 on page 48 illustrate several cabling examples of the SFP+ ports S1 and S2 as the trunk for stacks of two, three, and four switches. As illustrated, the trunk cables can crossover to different SFP+ ports S1 and S2 on the switches or connect the same ports.
Chapter 2: Virtual Chassis Stacking Straight-through Crossover Figure 14. Stack Trunks of SFP+ Ports S1 and S2 for Four Switches Stacks can have combinations of GS970EMX/20, GS970EMX/28, and GS970EMX/52 Switches. The stack in Figure 15 has two GS970EMX/20 Switches (top), one GS970EMX/28 Switch, and one GS970EMX/52 Switch (bottom).
The switches support the linear or chain configuration for the trunk, where the top and bottom switches are not linked together. Refer to Figure 16 for an example. Allied Telesis does not recommend this configuration because it does not provide redundancy should a trunk link fail.
Chapter 2: Virtual Chassis Stacking Straight-through Crossover Figure 18. Stack Trunks of Multi-Gigabit Copper Ports for Three Switches Crossover Straight-through Figure 19. Stack Trunks of Multi-Gigabit Copper Ports for Four Switches As with the SFP+ ports S1 and S2, the Multi-Gigabit copper ports support the chain topology, where ports on the top and bottom switches are unused.

Chain Stack Trunk of Multi-Gigabit Copper Ports Unsupported The following examples illustrate unsupported trunks: Trunks Trunks cannot have both Multi-Gigabit copper ports and SFP+ ports S1 and S2. Refer to Figure 21. Figure 21.
Chapter 2: Virtual Chassis Stacking The cables of a stack trunk of the SFP+ ports S1 and S2 can be either fiber optic or direct attach cables, but not both. The trunk in Figure 22 is unsupported because it has both fiber optic and direct attach cables.

Chapter 2: Virtual Chassis Stacking Master and Member Switches Stacks have a master switch. It coordinates and monitors stack operations, and assigns switch ID numbers during the initial formation of the stack and when new switches are added. The other switches of the stack are referred to as member switches.
CentreCOM GS970EMX Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking Switch ID Numbers Each switch in the stack must have an ID number. The range is 1 to 4. The default is 1. The ID numbers are displayed on the ID LEDs on the front panels of the units.
The switches might have additional features that are unlocked with feature licenses from Allied Telesis. Refer to the product’s data sheet on the Allied Telesis website for a list of feature licenses. Here are feature license guidelines: VCStack is part of the base features of GS970EMX Switches. It ...
CentreCOM GS970EMX Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking Planning the Stack Here are questions to answer before building the stack: How many switches will be in the stack?

For concrete walls, set the drill to hammer and rotation mode. The modes break up the concrete and clean out the hole. Allied Telesis recommends cleaning out the holes with a brush or compressed air. 7. If the wall material requires anchors, insert appropriate anchors in the holes.
Chapter 8 Displaying the Hardware Status and AlliedWare Plus Version Number The procedures in this chapter explain how to perform local management sessions on the switches to verify their hardware status and display the version numbers of the AlliedWare Plus management software. Allied Telesis recommends performing these procedures on each switch individually before building the stack.
Chapter 8: Displaying the Hardware Status and AlliedWare Plus Version Number Powering On the Switch The illustrations in this procedure show the North American power cord. Your power cord may look different. For AC power specifications, refer to “Power Specifications” on page 169. Warning Power cord is used as a disconnection device.

Chapter 10: Building Stacks with Multi-Gigabit Copper Ports Introduction As explained in “Stack Trunks” on page 46, the switches of a stack are connected by a physical link of two ports on each unit. There are two ways to build the trunk on GS970EMX Switches. One way is with the SFP+ ports S1 and S2, the default trunk ports.
CentreCOM GS970EMX Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking Command Summary This section describes the AlliedWare Plus commands for configuring the Multi-Gigabit copper ports as the stack trunk on the master and member switches. For further instructions, refer to the Software Reference for GS970EMX Switch, AlliedWare Plus Operating System.
The lower the MAC address, the higher the priority. Allied Telesis recommends setting the priority numbers to match the switch ID numbers. For example, the switch with ID 1 should be assigned priority 1, switch with ID 2 should be assigned priority 2, and so on. This is not a requirement, but it can make it easier to manage the stack.
CentreCOM GS970EMX Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking This example assigns the priority 1 to the switch with ID 1: awplus(config)# stack 1 priority 1 This example assigns the priority 2 to the switch with ID 2: awplus(config)# stack 2 priority 2 STACK Every switch in the stack must have a unique ID number.
Chapter 10: Building Stacks with Multi-Gigabit Copper Ports SWITCH You use this command to add member switches to the configuration of the master switch before powering on the stack for the first time. Here are the PROVISION command guidelines: Command Adding member switches to the master switch is not required when ...
Note The procedures require reseting the switch. Some network traffic will be lost if its ports are already connected to active devices. Allied Telesis recommends filling out the “VCStack Worksheet” on page 60 before building the stack. General Steps for There are two parts to designating the Multi-Gigabit copper ports on the master switch as the stack trunk.
Chapter 10: Building Stacks with Multi-Gigabit Copper Ports Here are the main steps to Part II: 1. Add the member switches as provisioned units to the configuration of the master switch, with the SWITCH PROVISION command. 2. Remove the default SFP+ S1 and S2 ports from the stack trunk on the provisioned member switches with the NO STACKPORT command.
