These two ports are in blocking and have Amber light as they are in blocking state.
So need to confirm on stack of 2 switches if we connect cables between each other it block the one side as it consider it as loop as in stack
it sees it as one virtual switch right ?
Thanks

Ofcourse yes. it is like connecting two ports a single switch to each other.
