xStack® DES-3200 Series Layer 2 Ethernet Managed Switch CLI Reference Guide

When a CS becomes a MS, it automatically becomes a member of the first SNMP community (includes read/write and read only)
to which the CS belongs.
The Upgrade to v1.6
To better improve SIM management, the Switch has been upgraded to version 1.6 in this release. Many improvements have been
made, including:
The Commander Switch (CS) now has the capability to automatically rediscover member switches that have left the SIM group,
either through a reboot or web malfunction. This feature is accomplished through the use of Discover packets and Maintain
packets that previously set SIM members will emit after a reboot. Once a MS has had its MAC address and password saved to the
CS’s database, if a reboot occurs in the MS, the CS will keep this MS information in its database and when a MS has been
rediscovered, it will add the MS back into the SIM tree automatically. No configuration will be necessary to rediscover these
switches. There are some instances where pre-saved MS switches cannot be rediscovered. For example, if the Switch is still
powered down, if it has become the member of another group, or if it has been configured to be a Commander Switch, the
rediscovery process cannot occur.
This version will support multiple switch upload and downloads for firmware, configuration files and log files, as follows:
Firmware – The switch now supports multiple MS firmware downloads from a TFTP server.
Configuration Files – This switch now supports multiple downloading and uploading of configuration files both to (for
configuration restoration) and from (for configuration backup) MS’s, using a TFTP server..
Log – The switch now supports uploading multiple MS log files to a TFTP server.
NOTE: For more details regarding improvements made in SIMv1.6, please refer to the White
Paper located on the D-Link website.
