Accessing the Switch

You manage the switch stack and the stack member interfaces through the stack master . You cannot
manage stack members on an individual switch basis. You can connect to the stack master through the
console port of one or more stack members. You can also connect to the stack master through the
Onboard Administator to the internal Ethernet management port. Be careful with using multiple CLI
sessions to the stack master. Commands you enter in one session are not displayed in the other sessions.
Therefore, it is possible to lose track of the session from which you entered commands.
Note
We recommend using one CLI session when managing the switch stack.
If you want to configure a specific stack member port, you must include the stack member number in
the CLI command interface notation. For more information about interface notations, see the
"Configuring Interfaces" chapter in the software configuration guide for this release.
To debug a specific stack member, you can access it from the stack master by using the session
stack-member-number privileged EXEC command. The stack member number is appended to the system
prompt. For example,
system prompt for the stack master is
CLI session to a specific stack member.
