How to stack Cisco 2960-S and Cisco 2960X

[Emma Jing]

Is there an easy way to stack Cisco 2960-S and Cisco 2960X switches? If you have no idea, follow this:

1. Stacking is not supported on switches running the LAN Lite image. All switches in the stack must be running the LAN Base image.
2. In a mixed stack of Catalyst 2960-X and Catalyst 2960-S switches, the number of supported stack members is reduced from eight to four.
3. In a mixed stack of Catalyst 2960-X and Catalyst 2960-S switches, full stack bandwidth is reduced from 80 Gbps to 40 Gbps.
4. In a mixed stack of Catalyst 2960-X and Catalyst 2960-S switches, stack convergence time is increased from milliseconds to 1 to 2 seconds.
