CLI: Renumber Stack Members
Note: When issuing a command (such as move management, or
renumber), NETGEAR recommends that you wait until the
command has fully executed before issuing the next command. For
example, if a reset is issued to a stack member, use the show port
command to verify that the switch has re-merged with the stack, and
all ports are joined before issuing the next command.
• If specific numbering is required, NETGEAR recommends that you assign stack members
their numbers when they are first installed and configured in the stack, if possible.
• If the stack unit number for a switch is unused, you can renumber the unit by using the
switch <oldunit-id> renumber <newunit-id> CLI command. This command is
found in global config mode.
• If the newunit-id has been preconfigured, you might need to remove the newunit-id from
the configuration before renumbering the unit.
• If you need to reassign multiple existing stack unit numbers, the configuration could
become mismatched.
To avoid this situation, NETGEAR recommends that you power
down all switches except the master, and then add them back one at a time using the
procedure in Section Add Switches to an Operating Stack on page 361.
