2960 L Stackable ?

[usmanalichouhaan]

Hi ALL ,

As we have ONE fortigate 300e firewall and Multiple cisco 2960L model switches and three floors. 

I have 2960 L cisco switches 

First question is do they stackable ? if yes i have 2 situations to solve.

Situation 1.

I want to stack switches on the Same Floor but switches are in different racks & atleast the distance is 50 meter .

So i am using fiber cables multimode . Etherchannel would be best option for better speed.

Your suggestions and recommentions in this case ?

Situation 2,

I have to do the same but this time from ground floor to floor 1 and 2 . any idea ?

your recommendations would be highly appreciatable .

Thanks,

Usman

Hi
looks like they support a feature called virtual stacking , they dont have actual stack ports like other flexstack 2960 switches or 3k/9k models etc , i haven't set this up before so i cant really comment on it but heres a config guide of how to get it up and running , looks to be basic enough easy to follow
