other units within this VLAN interface, then this IP address will no longer
be available. To retain a constant IP address for management access across
fail over events, you should include port members on several units within
the primary VLAN used for stack management.
Resilient Configuration
If a unit in the stack fails, the unit numbers will not change. This means
that when you replace a unit in the stack, the original configuration for the
failed unit will be restored to the replacement unit. This applies to both the
Master and Slave units.
Renumbering the Stack
The startup configuration file maps configuration settings to each switch
in the stack based on the unit identification number. If the units are no
longer numbered sequentially after several topology changes or failures,
you can reset the unit numbers using the “Renumbering” command in the
web interface or CLI. Just remember to save the new configuration settings
to a startup configuration file prior to powering off the stack Master.
Basic Configuration
Console Connection
The CLI program provides two different command levels — normal
access level (Normal Exec) and privileged access level (Privileged Exec).
The commands available at the Normal Exec level are a limited subset of
those available at the Privileged Exec level and allow you to only display
information and use basic utilities. To fully configure the switch
parameters, you must access the CLI at the Privileged Exec level.
Note: You can only access the console interface through the Master unit
in the stack.
Access to both CLI levels are controlled by user names and passwords.
The switch has a default user name and password for each level. To log
