Switch Stack Membership
Note
When uplink ports are working as stack ports, those particular uplink interfaces (ex: Te1/0/1) will not be listed
in any show command or will not be available under any config command, unlike any other network port.
They will be made available only after reload of the switch once ports are converted back to network.

Switch Stack Membership
A switch stack has up to eight stack members connected through their stack ports. A switch stack always has
one active switch.
A standalone device is a device stack with one stack member that also operates as the active switch. You can
connect one standalone device to another to create a stack containing two stack members, with one of them
as the active switch. You can connect standalone devices to an existing device stack to increase the stack
membership.
