Your plan looks fine. That is a logical layout of the ports. 
I have four PC 2848 switches that I would like to connect in the best way to provide good throughput and link redundancy. There are no VLANs involved. I have not been able to find a good basic example configuration for this. From what I have seen, I think I want to use 2-port LAGs to connect the 4 switches as so: SW1 -> SW2 SW2 -> SW3 SW3 -> SW4 SW4 -> SW1 I saw that it would be good to set the Path Cost higher for the SW4 -> SW1 LAG ports to avoid looping. But beyond this, I don't have any idea of how to set this up properly in terms of the actual settings in the UI. Does anyone have experience with this that could provide me with some pointers on how to configure the LAGs on each switch? Thanks much in advance! - Max
