I believe this is a simple spantree issue, if both ports on your content switch are bridged to the same vlan, then spantree will decide which port to use.

You won't be able switch content on both l2 switcches at the same time.

Could you explain this behavior ?

How would this change if the scenario was 2 CSS boxes each plugged into a seperate L2 switch, but the same VLAN and with the L2 switches being connected to each other and the CSS boxes connected together via crossover for redundancy?
