Step

Enter the ENABLE command to move from the User Exec mode to the Privileged
Exec mode.
awplus> enable
Verify that the hardware components are operating correctly by entering the SHOW

SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT command. All components should have an "Ok" status.
5
Verify that the XEM2 Line Cards are operating properly by entering the SHOW CARD
command. The cards should have an "Online" state.

Display the version number of the AlliedWare Plus operating software by entering the
SHOW VERSION command. The VCStack feature requires version 5.4.8-0 or later.
Write down the version number from the master switch in the worksheet in Table 11
on page 62. After viewing the version numbers on all the switches, you will compare
them to confirm they all have the same version. Switches with different versions will
have to be updated.

AlliedWare Plus (TM) 5.4.8-0

Move to the Global Configuration mode with the CONFIGURE TERMINAL command.
awplus# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Activate VCStack on the switch with the STACK ENABLE command.
awplus(config)# stack enable
% Automatically enabling 'stack virtual-mac' to minimize disruption
form failovers.
% Please check that the new MAC 0000.cd37.0431 is unique within the
network.
% Save the config and restart the system for this change to take
effect.
9
Set the ID number of the member switch with the STACK RENUMBER command. If
you are using the worksheet on Table 11 on page 62, refer there for the ID numbers.
This example assigns the ID number 2 to the member switch.
awplus(config)# stack 1 renumber 2
% Warning: Stacking is currently disabled.
% Warning: the new ID will not become effective until the stack-
member reboots.
% Warning: the boot configuration may now be invalid.
