How to interconnect two core switches

How to interconnect two core switches

Switch cascading is a traditional method to interconnect multiple Ethernet switches. Connecting switches can be achieved through two common methods: cascading and stacking. In this guide, we will explore these two approaches and provide you with the necessary details to make an informed decision. As Edge core is connected to switch so I am thinking about connecting Edge core direct to cisco router because I dont see a point connecting to the switch as there is no filtering via firewall.

Two core switches are configured

Yes, it is possible to have two core switches with the same SVIs (Switched Virtual Interfaces) configured. I want to take down the old core later on but will gradually transfer the connected devices from old to the new core one at a time. I'm working on a setup with two core switches (Core 1 and Core 2) running MLAG for redundancy and load balancing, and I've hit a weird problem with STP and MAC addresses.

How high are the height requirements for core switches

How high are the height requirements for core switches

They must be operable from a readily accessible location with the center of the grip not more than 6 feet 7 inches above the floor. While the National Electrical Code (NEC) doesn't specify a mandatory standard outlet height for most general-use receptacles, established industry best practices and accessibility laws provide clear guidance. Commercial switch socket height and placement in office buildings follow the accessibility code for outlets, which sets maximum 48-inch height for unobstructed. To maintain proper air circulation through the switch chassis, we recommend that you maintain a minimum space of 6 inches (15 cm) between a wall and the chassis and power supply unit air intakes or a wall and the chassis and power supply unit hot air exhausts.
