Which TWO characteristics are true about Cisco StackWise virtual technology? (Choose two.)
Trap 1: Each member switch must have the same hardware model.
INCORRECT: StackWise Virtual allows mixed hardware models, unlike physical StackWise which requires identical models.
Trap 2: It requires dedicated stacking cables for interconnectivity.
INCORRECT: StackWise Virtual uses regular Ethernet links, not dedicated stacking cables.
Trap 3: It supports up to 9 member switches in a stack.
INCORRECT: StackWise Virtual supports only 2 member switches, not 9.
- A
It allows multiple physical switches to operate as a single logical switch.
CORRECT: This is the primary function of StackWise Virtual—it creates a single logical switch from two physical switches.
- B
Each member switch must have the same hardware model.
Why wrong: INCORRECT: StackWise Virtual allows mixed hardware models, unlike physical StackWise which requires identical models.
- C
The stack can be managed using a single IP address.
CORRECT: A key benefit of StackWise Virtual is management simplicity via a single IP address.
- D
It requires dedicated stacking cables for interconnectivity.
Why wrong: INCORRECT: StackWise Virtual uses regular Ethernet links, not dedicated stacking cables.
- E
It supports up to 9 member switches in a stack.
Why wrong: INCORRECT: StackWise Virtual supports only 2 member switches, not 9.
