Adding a New Member to a Licensed Stack

When adding a new unit to an existing stack, the ports on a switch lacking a licensed feature that
has been enabled on the master will not pass traffic until the license has been enabled on the
added switch. (The ports are in the "ConfigMismatch" state.)
1. For B3 or C3 switches, obtain a node-locked license for the new switch. For C5 switches, check
that you have a non-node-locked license that can be applied to the new switch.
2. Add the new unit to the stack, following the procedure in
Stack" on page 2-3.
3. Use the set license command to install and activate the new switch's license. The new switch
will then join the stack and its ports will be attached.
Alternatively, you can install and activate the new switch's license first, before adding the switch
to the stack.

Displaying and Clearing Licenses

Licenses can be displayed and cleared only with the show license and clear license commands.
General configuration commands such as show config or clear config do not apply to licenses.
If you clear a license from a member unit in a stack while the master unit has an activated license,
the status of the member will change to "ConfigMismatch" and its ports will be detached from the
stack
If you clear a license from the master unit of a stack, the member units will remain attached to the
stack but the licensed functionality will no longer be available.

SNTP Configuration

Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) provides for the synchronizing of system time for
managed devices across a network. The Fixed Switch implementation supports unicast polling
and broadcast listening modes of operation to obtain the time from an SNTP server. SNTP is a
subset of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) as specified in RFC 1305. The most recent version of
SNTP is specified in RFC 2030. Since SNTP is a subset of NTP, all NTP servers are capable of
servicing SNTP clients. The SNTP mode is set on the client using the set sntp client command.

different license keys to members of the stack.
