Adding to a Stack or Moving Switches Between Stacks

You can add switches to a stack by adding discovered Candidates or by moving
switches from other stacks that may exist in the same subnet. (You cannot
add a Candidate that the Commander has not discovered.)
In its default configuration, the Commander's Auto-Grab parameter is set to
No to give you manual control over which switches join the stack and when
they join. This prevents the Commander from automatically trying to add
every Candidate it finds that has Auto Join set to Yes (the default for the
Candidate).
(If you want any eligible Candidate to automatically join the stack when the
Commander discovers it, configure Auto Grab in the Commander to
you do so, any Candidate discovered with
no Manager password will join the stack, up to the limit of 15 Members.)
