Configuring the
Master Switch
Step
1
Power on the master switch and wait two minutes for it to initialize its management
software:
- If the switch has AC power supplies, refer to "Powering On SBxPWRSYS2 AC
Power Supplies" on page 154.
- If the switch has the SBxPWRSYS1-80 DC Power Supply, power on the DC circuit
and the On/Off switch on the power supply. For instructions on wiring the DC
connector, refer to Chapter 5, "Wiring the SBxPWRSYS1-80 DC Power Supply" on
page 119.
2
Start a local management session on the switch. Refer to "Starting a Local
Management Session" on page 157.
3
Move to the Privileged Exec mode with the ENABLE command.
awplus> enable
4
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.
6
Display the version number of the AlliedWare Plus operating software on the master
switch by entering the SHOW VERSION command. The VCStack feature requires
version 5.4.8-0 or later. Write down the version number in the worksheet in Table 16
on page 72. 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.

switches, with the STACKPORT command in the port Interface mode.
8. Save your changes with the WRITE command in the Privilege Exec
mode.
9. Reboot the switch with the REBOOT command.
10. Start a new local management session.
11. Verify the changes with the SHOW STACK and SHOW RUNNING-
