H3C S5500-SI Series Operation Manual page 1205

Stack management requires 10 GE ports to connect member devices. Therefore, among the S5500-SI
series switches, only the following models that provide 10 GE ports support the stack management
function:
S5500-28C-SI
S5500-52C-SI
S5500-28C-PWR-SI
S5500-52C-PWR-SI
You can install an interface card on the rear panel and select the corresponding module or cable to
connect stack members. For information about interface cards and modules supported by the S5500-SI
series switches, refer to the installation manual.
Establishing a Stack
An administrator can establish a stack as follows:
Configure a private IP address pool for a stack and create the stack on the network device which is
desired to be the master device.
Configure ports between the stack devices as stack ports.
The master device automatically adds the slave devices into the stack, and assigns a number for
each stack member.
The administrator can log in to any slave device from the master device of the stack, and perform
configurations for the slave device.
