Switch redundancy for DC network

[shivccna_2011]

Hi All,

I would like to update you that currently we are using 2 switches of 3850. We need your input for the way to use it either via HA (High Availability) or Switch stacking mode.

Please do let us know the pros and cons of HA and switch stacking mode on either way.

What else to say?  Stacking mode you manage (and configure) ONE logical switch.

Hello leo,

you means single point of failure in Stacking mode. and if i want to Switch redundancy so need to configure in HA mode.

[Leo Laohoo]

you means single point of failure in Stacking mode.

There is no "single point of failure" because it's a stack.  

Switch redundancy so need to configure in HA mode.

This is old school and, with the advent of switch stacking, about to get irrelevant.
