Any IP information given to a hub in the stack is used by the whole
stack. If the stack is physically split, the IP information remains with the
hub and is used by its half, the other half has no IP information. You
can configure more than one hub in a stack with IP information. Doing

If you are managing a stack of hubs, this dialog box shows and affects
the settings of the hub which is unit number 1 in the stack (the bottom

becomes the bottom hub. However, be very careful not to break the
management connection.
