We have two 3750 Catalyst switches with Stack power. Is there any configuration that needs to be done or do i just connect the two switches stack powet cables and that's it?

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi Lakeram,

Ideally there is no need to configure anything on the switches for power stack to come in action, the default mode of working is power-sharing-The input power from all switches in the power stack can be used for loads, and

the total available power appears as one huge power supply and works just fine.

Though you can look forward to tune the power sharing mode and Power Stack Switch Power Parameters, Below document from the configuration guide that explains the various features:

Lake,

There is no specific configuration that needs to be done.  Just connect them together.  Once connected, the best way to test it is to pull the plug on one of them.  You should see that the switch is still running.
