Management Stacking - Planet Networking & Communication SGS-5220 User Manual

2.3.2 Management Stacking

The stack operation of the SGS Managed Switch supports Plug and Play Stacking connection and auto stack configuration.
Step 5: Once the stack starts operation, the Stack master will be automatically selected without any configuration. The Stack
master is indicated by a lit green "Master" LED on the front panel as
Master LED
Step 6: When an SGS Switch is added to the stack, a Switch ID is automatically assigned to the SGS Switch. The automatic
SID assignment can be modified by choosing a different Switch ID on the Stack Configuration page. This method
allows Switch IDs to be assigned so that it is easier for the user to remember the ID of each switch.
Step 7: Connect the RJ45 serial cable to the console port on the front of the stack master, and then login the SGS Switch to
start the switch management. Or you can use the PLANET Smart Discovery Utility to display the IP address of the
stack and Web login the stack with this IP address. The default IP address of the SGS Switch is 192.168.0.100.
