Abstract
A first switch includes a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory stores instructions causing the processor, after execution of the instructions by the processor, to establish a first stacking link between a first stacking port of the first switch and a first stacking port of a second switch, establish a second stacking link between a second stacking port of the first switch and a first stacking port of a third switch, and dedicate the first stacking link to a first class of traffic between the first switch and the second switch.
