Stacking different catalyst models, is it possible?

[Jameel Ahmed]

hi,

1. can we stack different models of switches i.e 2950 with 3750 or 2960 with 3750 etc.. ?

2. can we stack Stackwise with Stackwise Plus switches?

3. what is gigastacking? is it something that can be plugged in place of gbic card and help stack switches via this cable?

thanks..

no, you can not stack 2960s with 3750s.  You can however have different 3750 models in the same stack.

2. can we stack Stackwise with Stackwise Plus switches?

Yes

3. what is gigastacking? is it something that can be plugged in place of gbic card and help stack switches via this cable?
