    Posted Jan 06, 2022 02:04 PM
    Hi everyone,
    I've a VSF of 4 Aruba JL259A in ring topology connected together with a 2 port VSF Link. Now I bought 2 Aruba JL260A and want to add them to the VSF.
    All switches have Software version WC.16.10.0009 and ROM version WC.16.01.0008. 
    What would be the steps to add these two JL260A switches to the current VSF ?

    Thanks in advance.
    Gabriel

    This is the current configuration of my VSF:
