System Description The Dell™ PowerConnect™ 3324 and 3348 devices are standalone and stackable advanced Layer 2 switches. PowerConnect 3324 and PowerConnect 3348 also function as stand-alone Layer 2 switching systems. PowerConnect 3324/3348 devices are managed either using In- Band Management (via the network station remotely) or via the console. PowerConnect 3324 When operating as a stack member, each PowerConnect 3324 unit provides 24 10 BaseT/100BaseTX Fast Ethernet ports, one Gigabit Ethe

During the stacking setup, one device is selected by the network administrator as the stack master, while all other devices are selected as stack members and assigned a unique Unit ID. PowerConnect 3324/3348 stacks provide across-the-stack Layer 2 functionality including: Switching Trunking Port Mirroring VLANs For example, VLANs can be configured from ports belonging to different stack members, or configure port mirroring from a second stack member to a third stack member. Applicatio

When the master unit boots or when inserting or removing a stack member, the master unit initiates a stacking discover process. If two members are discovered with the same Unit ID, or a master unit is not found, the entire stack cannot function. The stacking LED remains red. Configuration Handling In a PowerConnect 3324/3348 operative stack, the stack master is responsible for the stack configuration. Each stack member does not have a separate configuration file. Each port in the stack ha

Rearranging Stacks The stacking order can be changed by either removing a stack member or by rearranging the stacking cables. The order in which stack members are arranged is established not by the physical order of the stack members but by the Unit ID assignment. The stack configuration is stored in stack master after the stack order is changed, and the stack is reset. If the PowerConnect 3324/3348 unit is removed or replaced in a stack, the stack recovers from the disconnection as follow

PowerConnect 3324 Replaces PowerConnect 3348 If a PowerConnect 3348 replaces PowerConnect 3348, the new 48 10/100 BaseT ports receive the previous 48 10/100 BaseT port configuration. Ports G1 and G2 receive the previous device’s G1 and G2 port configuration. If a PowerConnect 3348 replaces PowerConnect 3324, then ports 1-24 10/100 BaseT receive the previous device’s configuration for ports 1-24. Ports 25-48 receive the factory default port configuration.
