Managing Switch Stacks

1. Install units in rack.

2. Install all stacking cables. Fully connect, including the redundant stack link. It is highly 

recommended that a redundant link be installed.

3. Identify the unit to be the master. Power this unit up first.

4. Monitor the console port. Allow this unit to come up to the login prompt. If unit has the default 

configuration, it should come up as unit #1, and will automatically become a master unit. If 
not, renumber as desired.

5. If desired, preconfigure other units to be added to the stack. Preconfiguration is described in 

6. Power on a second unit, making sure it is adjacent (next physical unit in the stack) to the unit 

already powered up. This will insure the second unit comes up as a member of the stack, and 
not a “Master” of a separate stack.

7. Monitor the master unit to see that the second unit joins the stack. Use the “show switch” 

command to determine when the unit joins the stack. It will be assigned a unit number (unit 
#2, if it has the default configuration).

8. Renumber this stack unit, if desired. See section 

 on 

recommendations for renumbering stack members.

9. Repeat steps 6 through 8 to add additional members to the stack. Always power on a unit 

adjacent to the units already in the stack.

1. Make sure the redundant stack connection is in place and functional. All stack members 

should be connected in a logical ring.

2. Power down the unit to be removed.

3. Disconnect stack cables.

4. If unit is not to be replaced, reconnect the stack cable from the stack member above to the 

stack member below the unit being removed.

5. Remove unit from the rack.

6. If desired, remove the unit from the configuration by issuing the command: 

no member <unit-id>
