    Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Roles Within the Stack In order to operate as a virtual chassis, switches within an OmniSwitch 6450 stack are assigned specific roles. These roles include primary and secondary management roles, idle status, and pass-through. For detailed descriptions of each of these roles, including their practical functions within the virtual chassis, refer to the sections below.
  • Page 107 Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Roles Within the Stack Note. For management module redundancy to work effectively, the software on all switches operating in the stack must be synchronized at all times. Refer to “Synchronizing Switches in a Stack” on page 5-37 for more information.

  • Page 109: Primary Management Module Selection

    Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Roles Within the Stack Primary Management Module Selection For a stack of OmniSwitch 6450 switches to operate as a virtual chassis, there must be a mechanism for dynamically selecting the switch within the stack that will assume the primary management role. OmniS- witch 6450 switches use three different methods for selecting the primary switch.
  • Page 110 Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Using Saved Slot Information The saved slot number is the slot number the switch will assume following a reboot. This information is stored in a switch’s boot.slot.cfg file; the switch reads its slot number assignment from this file at bootup and assumes the specified slot number within the stack.
  • Page 111 Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Roles Within the Stack Using Switch Uptime A user can override both the MAC address and saved slot methods for determining a stack’s primary management module. This is done by controlling the uptime of switches in the stack. If all elements of a stack are powered off, the user can force a particular switch to become primary by powering on that switch and waiting a minimum of 15 seconds before powering on any other switches.

For example, if a stack of four switches is booted and the preassigned slot values for each switch are 1, 2, 3, and 4, the switch with the slot value of 2 is assigned the secondary role.

    Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Idle Module Role Switches that are not assigned either the primary or secondary role in a stack are, by default, assigned the role of idle modules. These idle modules operate similarly to Network Interface (NI) modules in a chassis- based switch.

    Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Roles Within the Stack Pass-Through Mode The pass-through mode is a state in which a switch has attempted to join a stack but has been denied primary, secondary, and idle status. When a switch is in the pass-through mode, its Ethernet ports are brought down (i.e, they cannot pass traffic).

    Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Stack Cabling Stack Cabling Switches in a stack are connected to each other by stacking cables. These stacking cables provide high- speed, dual-redundant links between switches in a stack. Stacking cables for OmniSwitch 6450 switches must be connected in an A-B pattern. In other words, the cable connected to stacking port A of one switch must be connected to stacking port B of the adjacent switch.
