Expansion Modules
If you are building a stack of Ethernet switches, it is important to
know that the more switches in the stack, the fewer number of
expansion modules allowed. (This relates to the number of device
identification numbers that are available to the switches.)
Table 2-2 lists the number of expansion modules that you can install
in stacks of one to eight switches. For example, for a stack of six
switches you could install a total of eight expansion modules. The
expansion modules themselves can be installed in any switch in a
stack, and in any order.
