Page 39: About Securestack C2 Switch Operation In A Stack
About SecureStack C2 Switch Operation in a Stack The SecureStack C2 products are stackable switches that can be adapted and scaled to help meet your network needs. These switches provide a management platform and uplink to a network backbone for a stacked group of up to eight SecureStack switches. Once installed in a stack, the switches behave and perform as a single switch. As such, you can start with a single switch and add more switches as your network expands. You can also mix different products in the family in a single stack to provide a desired combination of port types and functions to match the requirements of individual applications. In all cases, a stack of switches performs as one large product, and is managed as a single network entity. When switches are installed and connected as described back in “Connecting High‐Speed Stacking Cables” on page 3‐11, the following occurs during initialization: • The switch that will manage the stack is automatically established and is referred to as the Manager switch. • All other switches are established as Member switches in the stack. • The hierarchy of the switches that will assume the function of backup manager is also determined in case the current manager malfunctions, is powered down, or is disconnected from the stack. • The console port on the manager switch remains active for out‐of‐band (local) switch management, but the console port on each member switch is deactivated. This enables you to set the IP address and system password using a single console port. Now each switch can be configured locally using only the manager’s console port, or inband using a remote device and the CLI set of commands described in this section. For procedures used for various types of connections to the Console port, refer to “Connecting to Console Port for Local Management” on page 3‐17. Once a stack is created (more than one switch is interconnected), the following occurs: Switch (unit) IDs are arbitrarily assigned on a first‐come, first‐served basis. -
Page 40: Recommended Procedures For New And Existing Stacks
The following procedures assume that all switches have a clean configuration from manufacturing. When adding a new switch to an already running stack, it is also assumed that the new switch is using the same firmware image version as other switches in the stack. -
Page 41: Connecting Ac And Rps Power
• Use clear config to clear config parameters without clearing stack switch IDs. This command WILL NOT clear stack parameters and avoids the process of re-numbering the stack. • Use clear config all when it is necessary to clear all config parameters, including stack switch IDs and switch priority values. -

Note: If the CPU LED illuminates solid red, there was a critical failure. For more information about the LED indications and troubleshooting, refer to additional help, contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to details If the switch is a standalone switch, it will take approximately 30 seconds for the switch to start up. If the switch is a stack Manager, it can take up to 3 minutes or more to start up, depending on the number of Member switches in the stack. RPS Power If you are installing an optional redundant power system (C2RPS‐SYS), refer to the ... -
Page 43: Stack Initialization Overview
Note: When switches are connected in a stack configuration and all high-speed stacking cables are connected before powering up the switches, one switch in the stack will be automatically designated as the Manager of the stack and its Console port will remain active. -
Page 44: What Is Needed
Connecting to Console Port for Local Management What Is Needed The following is a list of user‐supplied DTE interface cables that may be needed to connect the DB9 male Console port connector on the switch. The cables are terminated by a DB9 female connector at one end, and by one of three type connectors at the other end, depending on the type connection needed for the remote device.
