  • Page 38: Optional) Install The Stacking Module

    NOTE: The 2930M switch stacking module is not hot-swappable. The switch must be powered off before replacing the module. If a 2930M switch is powered on for the first time without a stacking module installed, stacking is disabled in the switch running configuration. If you later install the stacking module, it will not be enabled until you either cycle the power to the switch or use the boot command to restart the switch.

    If you connect a 2930M switch twisted-pair port to another switch or hub, which typically have MDI-X ports, the 2930M port automatically operates as an MDI port. If you connect it to an end node, such as a server or PC, which typically have MDI ports, the 2930M switch port operates as an MDI-X port.

    If any of these ports are given a fixed configuration, for example 100 Mbps/Full Duplex, the ports operate as MDI- X ports, and crossover cables must be then used for connections to hubs or switches or other MDI-X network devices. Aruba 2930M Switches...
