Hi @it_user1 

 

Welcome to the community!

 

Netgear switch will do local switching in scenario stack topology, and shortest?path priority when forwarding traffic across more than 3 device stacking.

However when deal with multicast and broadcast traffic, it will forward to stacking port?additional.

 

Hope it helps!
