I assume you are referring to the gig over copper usb looking cables and
gbics. They are kind of fool proof. Just insert the giga gbics and run
the cables round robin to the other adapters.
For example, three switches with three two port gbics.

Subject: Gigastacks & Clustering
Hello and hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving...
I am going to be "gigastacking" several switches together but I can't
find too much configuration information on Cisco.com for doing this.
All I found was a document that said to configure the gigastack
interface as a trunk.
I've also looked into switch "clustering". Are "clustering" and
"gigastacking" mutually exclusive? Do you have to cluster if you
gigastack switches? I know a switch cluster is a single managed unit
across all switches, but I really want to manage each switch
individually but to leverage the gigastacking capability. Is this
possible?
Does anyone have any more information on this and/or any documents you
can point me to in order to clarify these differences?
Thanks in advance,
Ken
