Management Port Cabling; Stacking Port Leds; Installing A Summit Family Switch (Models Other Than Summit X650 Series) - Extreme Networks Summit X250e-24t Hardware Installation Manual

Management Port Cabling

Connect the master, backup, and all other master-capable switches to your management network using
the Ethernet management port on the rear panel of each switch. If you choose the default redundancy
setup, only slots 1 and 2 are allowed to become master. You may connect all switch management ports
in the stack if you choose to do so. There is an alternate IP address configuration that will allow you to
directly log into an individual switch in the stack through its management port.

Stacking Port LEDs

Each stacking port has an LED. The LED is steady green if the link is OK, blinking green if traffic is
present, and off if no signal is present.
