7-6. IP Stacking
The IP stacking function allows up to eight MIL-SM2401M-STK switches to be
joined as a single unit group. The stackable switches can then be managed
through a single IP address. When configuring the stacking function, please
review the following guidelines.
Any port on the switch can be used for stacking.
All switches which are to be stacked together must be in the same network
before the stacking function can be configured.
The master switch must be configured first, followed by the slave switches.
Slave switches can be viewed independently as read-only data. Updates
must be made through the master switch.
To remove the master switch from a stacking group, remove all slave
switches first and then remove the master switch from stacking group.
If the master switch has been removed from the stacking group before the
slave switches, use the
Console Interface Menu
to
EITHER
re-configure
the switch configuration for each slave switch
OR
re-configure one of the
slave switches as the master switch.
