Page 36: Stacking Overview
Chapter 3: Stacking Stacking Overview Stacking provides multiple switch management through a single point as if all stack members are a single unit. All stack members are accessed through a single IP address through which the stack is managed. The stack can be managed using the following interfaces: Devices support stacking up to six units per stack, or can operate as stand-alone units. -
Page 37: Stacking Chain Topology
automatically switches to a Stacking Failover topology without any system downtime. An SNMP message is automatically generated, but no stack management action is required. However, the stacking link or stacking member must be repaired to ensure the stacking integrity. After the stacking issues are resolved, the device can be reconnected to the stack without interruption, and the Ring topology is restored. - Page 38 Chapter 3: Stacking manually configured as the Stacking Master, the manually configured member is elected Stacking Master. If two Master-enabled units are present and neither has been manually configured as the Stacking Master, the one with the longer up-time is elected Stacking Master.
-
Page 39: Exchanging Stacking Members
Units are reassigned Unit IDs Units toggle between Stacking mode and Stand-alone mode Each time the system reboots, the Startup configuration file in the Master unit is used to configure the stack. If a stack member is removed from the stack and then replaced with a unit with the same Unit ID, the stack member is configured with the original device configuration. -
Page 40: Configuring Stacking
Chapter 3: Stacking Configuring Stacking Configuring stacking is performed during the bootup process. To configure a device as part of a stack, the bootup process must be interrupted straight after the Power On Self Test (POST). To configure the device for stacking, perform the following: Autoboot in 2 seconds -press RETURN or Esc.to abort and enter prom. - Page 41 The Startup Menu is displayed and contains the following configuration functions: Startup Menu [1] Download Software [2] Erase Flash File [3] Password Recovery Procedure [4] Enter Diagnostic Mode [5] Set Terminal Baud-Rate [6] Stack menu [7] Back Enter your choice or press 'ESC' to exit: From the Startup Menu, press “6”.

Chapter 4: Initial Configuration Configuration Overview Before assigning a static IP address to the device, obtain the following information from the network administrator: There are two types of configuration: Initial configuration consists of configuration functions with basic security considerations, whereas advanced configuration includes dynamic IP configuration and more advanced security considerations. -
Page 45: Configuration
Configuration The initial configuration, which starts after the device has booted successfully, includes static IP address and subnet mask configuration, and setting user name and privilege level to allow remote management. If the device is to be managed from an SNMP-based management station, SNMP community strings must also be configured. -
Page 46: User Name
Chapter 4: Initial Configuration illustrated in the following example. User Name A user name is used to manage the device remotely, for example through SSH, Telnet, or the Web interface. To gain complete administrative (super-user) control over the device, the highest privilege (15) must be specified. -

Page 48: Forgot Or Lost The Password
Chapter 5: Troubleshooting Be sure the management station has an IP address in the same subnet as the switch’s IP interface to which it is connected. If you are trying to connect to the switch via the IP address for a tagged VLAN group, your management station, and the ports connecting intermediate switches in the network, must be configured with the appropriate tag. -
