Hello all,
I would like to configure the 4 M6348 switches that I have in a stack to make one logical 196 port switch.
1. If I assign all of the stack ports VLAN 100, 101, 102, 103, etc.. + the management VLAN, then the only traffic that will pass in between the the stack members will be traffic on those VLANs that I specified on each stack port correct?
2. If I assign eth0/0/01 to VLAN 100, then it will only send and receive traffic on VLAN 100 correct? it will not accept traffic from any other VLAN?
3. To trunk a port, I would simply assign that port multiple VLANs correct?
4. What are port channels used for? I would like a definition from the Dell side of things.
5. What is best practice for the ports that will be used for stacking? port-fast, no DCB, members of the same port channel, port channel configured with the same VLANs?
6. What would be the initial commands to setup the stack?
I tried to look for Dell CLI reference guides but could only find PDFs tied to specific switches. I was looking for a more complete guide for learning purposes. I guess you have to take a course to learn Dell CLI.
Anyway, any help would be much appreciated.
