IOS Version Compatibility for Stacking

b.budd

Level 1

I have a 3 unit 2960S stack with each member running 12.2(55)SE5

 

I want to add a 4th unit running 12.2.(55)SE10

 

Are these considered the same or at least compatible versions (12.2.(55)) as far as stacking goes?  I really just want to be able to wr erase the new member and just pop it in the stack.

 

Thanks

So is 12.2.(55) the same as 12.2.(55)?

 

Does it matter if one is SE5 and the other is SE10?

No, its run normally, i have an network with this version running..

For what it's worth, I have another stack where one is running SE3 and the other SE5.  So I'm thinking the "SE" part doesn't matter as long as the IOS base is the same.

 

WS-C2960S-48FPS-L  12.2(55)SE3
WS-C2960S-48FPS-L  12.2(55)SE5

 

Thanks

if you pop that 4th member in, you will get a version mismatch,

 

if you have access to the existing stack copy the bin file using ftp or tftp and stick it on member 4 before you add it to the stack
