Cascade Option

The management module cascade option allows the network administrator to
connect up to eight (8) CPSMC18xx-xxx chassis into one manageable stack,
providing a single management source for up to 135 conversion devices.
To create the cascade option, the CPSMM-200 Dual Slot Master Management
Module is installed in the first chassis in the series. The CPSMM-210 Single-Slot
Expansion management module is installed in each subsequent chassis.

In this set-up, the two CPSMM-200 management modules auto-negotiate so that
one module is the primary while the other is in stand-by mode. If the primary
module fails, the stand-by module automatically takes over and manages the
network.
