The stack is managed primarily through the Master switch. The Master switch then
pushes configuration changes and run‐time information to the Member switches.
To access the Master switch, use Telnet or the Browser‐Based Interface (BBI) as
follows:
 Use the serial console.
 On any switch in the stack, connect to any port that is not part of an active LAG
and is a member of a VLAN. To access the stack, use the IP address of any IP
interface that is member of the VLAN.
The administrator can reboot individual switches in the stack, or the entire stack
using the following commands:
RS 8264CS(config)# reload
RS 8264CS(config)# reload master
RS 8264CS(config)# reload switch <csnum list>
The Configure > System > Config/Image Control window allows the
administrator to perform a reboot of individual switches in the stack, or the entire
stack. The following table describes the stacking Reboot buttons.
