Configuring stack

Overview

The stack management feature allows you to configure and monitor a group of connected devices by
logging in to one device in the stack, as shown in
Figure 25 Stacking devices
To set up a stack for a group of connected devices, you must log in to one device to create the stack. This
device is the master device for the stack. You configure and monitor all member devices on the master
device. The ports that connect the stack member devices are called stack ports.
