You have to perform the procedures on each member switch individually,
before connecting the trunk ports. The procedures should be performed in
the order presented here.
Note
The procedures require resetting member switches. Some network
traffic will be lost if the ports are connected to an active network.
Configuring member switches has two parts. Here are the main steps to
Part I:
1. Start a local management session on the switch.
2. Assign an ID number in the range of 2 to 4 to the member switch with
the SWITCH RENUMBER command in the Global Configuration
mode.
3. Save your changes with the WRITE command in the Privilege Exec
mode.
4. Restart the switch with the REBOOT command.
Part II has these main steps:
1. Start a new local management session with the switch.
2. Remove SFP+ S1 and S2 ports from the stack trunk on the switch with
the NO STACKPORT command.
3. Designate the Multi-Gigabit copper ports as the stack trunk with the
STACKPORT command.
4. Save your changes with the WRITE command in the Privilege Exec
mode.
