gigastack and etherchannel

[m.mimouni]

Hi all

Can we use two gigastacks to form an etherchannel ?

Hi

I have found the response to this question :

In a Gigastack configuration, it is not possible to use ports on different switches to form one etherchannel. The ports must be on the same switch to form the etherchannel

Thanks

I assume you mean two switches with two GigStack GBICs in each switch for a total of 4 GigaStacks. Yes, as long as you use the GigaStack in a point to point configuration. In a point to point configuration, the GigaStack GBIC functions like a regular GBIC (1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX, etc)
