To do...
Configure a private IP address
pool for the stack
If a device is already configured as the master device of a stack or is already a slave device of a
stack, you cannot configure a private IP address pool on the device.
When you configure a private IP address pool for a stack, the number of IP addresses in the
address pool needs to be equal to or greater than the number of devices to be added to the stack.
Otherwise, some devices may not be able to join the stack automatically for lack of private IP
addresses.
Configuring Stack Ports
On the master device, configure ports that connect to slave devices as stack ports.
Follow the steps below to configure stack ports:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the specified ports as
stack ports
Creating a Stack
After you execute the stack role master command on a stack-capable device, the device becomes the
master device of a stack and automatically adds the devices connected with its stack ports to the stack.
Follow the steps below to create a stack:
To do...
Enter system view
