stacking 3750-X and 3750G

[steinie]

What are the software features on 3750G and 3750-X are needed for the two models to be joined in a stack ?

[Marvin Rhoads]

Per Cisco (reference), "The Cisco StackWise technology requires that all units in the stack run the same release of Cisco IOS Software."

You can mix feature sets (i.e. IP Base vs. IP Services) but it's not generally recommended.

In addition to what Marvin has already noted, I recall you cannot use the LAN Lite IOS on the 3750-X and if the 3750G is a -12S, it need to use a compatible SDM template.

I later read that Lan Base feature set on 3750X only accepts stacking with other 3750X. In order to have 3750X stacked with other types (3750G etc) a Ip Base or IP Services feature set is needed.
