Stack Links data window
The Stack Links data window displays information about all switch links for a stack of switches in the
faceplate display. This information includes the switch names, the port number at the end of each link, and
the link status icon. To open the Stack Links data window, click a stack icon in the fabric tree, and click the
Stack Links tab below the data window in the stack faceplate display.

The Stack Links data window fields are described in Table 10 .
Managing Switch Stacks
The QuickTools web applet recognizes switches as a stack if they are connected by their high speed
stacking ports. QuickTools will auto-detect switches connected by their 10 Gb/s or 20 Gb/s ports and
display these stacked switches as a single stack entity in the faceplate display ( Figure 21 ).
Legacy Address Format None

the highest principal priority, or the principal switch, will
reassign any domain ID conflicts and establish the fabric.
