Switch Stack Management

Switch stack creation and deletion configuration in Meraki networks provides administrators with comprehensive switch aggregation and redundancy management capabilities, enabling logical switch grouping, high availability implementation, centralized management, and network resilience enhancement. This functionality supports automatic failover mechanisms, load distribution, unified configuration management, and operational simplification. Switch stacking is essential for creating resilient network architectures, reducing management complexity, providing hardware redundancy, and ensuring business continuity in enterprise switching infrastructure.

    - name: "!env domain"
      administrator:
        name: "!env org_admin"
      organizations:
        - name: "!env org"
          networks:
            - name: "!env network_name"
              product_types:
                - appliance
