Switch Stack Management Introduction Configuring stack management Creating a stack (Overview) Viewing stack status (CLI) Viewing the status of an individual switch Viewing the status of candidates the Commander has detected (CLI) Viewing the status of all stack-enabled switches discovered in the IP subnet (CLI) Viewing the status of the Commander and current members of the Commander’s stack (CLI) Viewing stack status and configuring a Commander switch (Menu) Configuring a Commander switch (CLI) Making a switch a Commander (CLI) Using a Member’s CLI to make the Member Commander of a new stack Adding to a stack, or moving switches between stacks (CLI) Manually adding a Candidate to a stack (Menu) Moving a Member from one stack to another (Menu) Using auto join on a Candidate (CLI) Using a Candidate CLI to push the Candidate into a stack Using the destination Commander CLI to pull a member from another stack Using a Member CLI to push the Member into another stack Converting a Commander to a Member of another stack (CLI) Converting a Commander or Member to a Member of another stack (Commander Menu) Removing a Member from a stack (CLI) Removing a stack Member (Menu) Accessing Member switches for configuration changes and traffic monitoring (CLI) Accessing Member switches for configuring changes and monitoring traffic (Commander Menu) Disabling or re-enabling stacking (CLI) Setting the transmission interval (CLI) Managing a Candidate switch (Menu) Pushing a switch into a stack, modifying the switch’s configuration, or disabling stacking on the switch (Menu) Using the Commander to manage the stack Monitoring stack status (Menu) Using a stacked switch to view status for all switches with stacking enabled (Menu) Viewing Commander status (Menu) Viewing Member status, and a Commander’s IP and MAC addresses and status (Menu) Viewing Candidate status (Menu) About stack management
