VERVIEW OF
The Summit Virtual Chassis is a high performance, low cost external backplane that
connects up to eight stacked or distributed Summit switches into one cohesive system.
A Virtual Chassis (VC) stack is a configuration of one to four Summit Virtual Chassis
and up to eight connected Summit switches.
Note:
The Virtual Chassis Stack Manager applet of the ExtremeWare Enterprise Manager lets
you identify virtual stack configurations, as well as manually create, modify, and delete
Virtual Chassis stack topology representations in the Enterprise Manager database.
Managing stack topologies through the VC Stack Manager does not affect the actual
switch configurations. Only port configurations can be changed on the switch through
the VC Stack Manager.
