Summit Stacking
Supported on Summit 200, 300, and 400 switches. Managed as one switching entity Summit 200 and 300 series switches use the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the front. Summit 400 series switches use dedicated stacking ports on the back. Summit 200, 300, and 400 switches can be mixed in a single stack.
Maximum of 8 switches in a stack.
