Make sure the IP addresses in the IP address pool of a stack are successive so that they can be

assigned successively. For example, the IP addresses in an IP address pool with its start IP

address something like 223.255.255.254 are not successive. In this case, errors may occur when

adding a switch to the stack.

IP addresses in the IP address pool of a stack must be of the same network segment. For example,

the 1.1.255.254 is not a qualified start address for a stack IP address pool.

If the IP address of the management VLAN interface of the main switch (or a slave switch) is not of

the same network segment as that of the stack address pool, the main switch (or the slave switch)

automatically removes the existing IP address and picks a new one from the stack address pool as

its IP address.

Since both stack and cluster use the management VLAN and only one VLAN interface is available

on the S3100 switch, stack and cluster must share the same management VLAN if you want to

configure stack within a cluster.

Maintaining Slave Switches

After creating a stack, you can switch to slave switch view from the main switch to configure slave

Switch to slave switch view

You can quit slave switch view after slave switch configuration.

Quit slave switch view

On the S3100 series switches, only GE SFP ports that are installed with stack modules can be used as

stack ports.

stacking number

Number: Serial number of the

slave switch to be accessed.

You can switch from the user

view of the main switch to that

of the slave switch without

changing the user level.

You can quit slave switch view

only by executing this

command in user view of a

slave switch.
