Multiple Stack Links
From reading the "Multiple Stack Links" section of the S3300 User Manual, it sounds as though I can use two fiber connections to a 2nd switch to form a stack with 20GB bandwidth. I can also add two E...
Wild guess from the road - don't we have to configure a LAG for each group of stack links?

I apologize for the delay. Because the switches are in production (using a single link) I have to schedule the downtime to test. I was hoping to do this last friday but was feeling under the weather so I wasn’t able to come in to perform the adjustment. I’m back to work now and am reviewing my calendar for a reschedule.
I sincerely appreciate the responses so far. The ports are both configured and running in stack mode so I am looking into the LAG suggestion. I hope to have results this week.
I'm preparing for the LAG test. If I understand the "Multiple Stack Links" section correctly, since the switches are currently connected with Fiber, I should be able to create a LAG with the Ethernet ports, connect the Ethernet cables, then disconnect the fiber link without down time.
While preparing the LAG, I ran into a question. Do I need an individual LAG on each speperate physical switch or can I add all four ports into a single LAG. As I link about this, it seems that each physical switch will need a LAG. Thoughts?
