Looks like it maybe supported.I honestly cannot see many real uses for it, aside from ticking a box on a design spec. With the 100gb switch not listed in supported (maybe it does work and the document is old) you really limited on real throughput.
I'll stick with my spine and leaf for now.
The simplest and most common use of such feature would be LACP spanned across 2 different, physical switches. In CISCO world it is called vPC. I am also eagerly looking for implementing multi-chassis port agreggation in SwOS - in RouterOS it is possible:I honestly cannot see many real uses for it, aside from ticking a box on a design spec.
My data cabinet at home now has two CSS326-24G-2S switches. I have two in there because I ran out of ports on the first one. Replacing the first switch with a CRS354 was WAY too much money to seriously consider. Between the two of there, there are currently 7 GigE ports and two SFP ports free. I would love to have them behave as a single switch.I honestly cannot see many real uses for it, aside from ticking a box on a design spec.

Where did you get the idea that I am connecting the two switches with 7 x 1 GbE connections? They are connected with a single 1 GigE connection - which is plenty for my home network. The only time I come close to loading that up is when I back up my server (in the data cabinet) to an external hard drive on the family room PC every Friday and Monday night.Despite all of that I still don't get why you didn't interconnect switches with at least 1 x 10 Gb twinax cable instead of 7 x 1 GbE interfaces...
In ROS this is supported as port extender. It only works with select devices as Controller Bridge and select devices as Port Extender. And it does seem that all frsme processing is actually done by CB device which means huge utilization of CB-PE interconnection and necessity for very capable switch chip in CB.Tying the two CSS326 switches together is easy. However they are still entirely treated as two separate switches from a management perspective.
Yes, that's what I understood from your post. I am not native English speaker so forgive me...Or did you read my statement that there are 7 free (unused) ports to mean that I was connecting the two switches with 7 connections?
