Configuring Stacking
Stacking Introduction
Stacked PowerConnect 3324/3348 units act as a single system. Each stack has one Master
unit, and up to five Member units. The Master unit:
• Manages all member device setup.
• Configures member ports.
• Manages events that occur in the member context.
All stacked unit Event Logs are managed and reported by the selected Master unit. Member
units are accessed via the Master unit, although each unit can be accessed through its
ASCII terminal (RS-232 port).
Stacking Requirements
Perform the following stacking requirements before you build a stack:
• Ensure each unit has a stack-link module inserted.
• Ensure all cables are properly connected.
• All units are powered up. After a few seconds, the Unit ID LEDs flashes.
• Each Member unit has a unit ID. For more information about selecting Unit IDs, see
"Stack ID Button".

This section contains instructions for configuring a stack. To configure a stack:
NOTE: The Stack Unit ID must be selected within 15 seconds.
