Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a stacking implementation method. The method comprises: a first device broadcasting a stacking enabled packet through a first port, the stacking enabled packet carrying information through which another device can establish a stacking relationship with the first device, the first device being a main device of a stacking system, the first port for broadcasting the stacking enabled packet being used as a stacking port of the first device, and the first port being located at the first device; the first device receiving a first stacking confirmation packet sent by a second device, the first stacking confirmation packet carrying a MAC address of the second device and information for using the second part as a stacking port oriented to the first device, of the second device, and the second port being located at the second device; and the first device switching the first port from a common service port to a stacking port, and recording the MAC address of the second device and a topological relationship between the first port and the second port. By using the foregoing embodiment, the switches can establish, by means of autonegotiation, a stacking system without manual configuration.
