Setting the Stack ID Number

Starting a Local

Management

Session

After the switch has initialized its management software, examine the Stack ID LED on the front panel and do one of the following:

If the LED is displaying “0,” the installation procedure is complete. The switch is now ready for network operations as a stand-alone unit. Refer to the AT-8100 Series AlliedWare Plus Command Line Interface User’s Guide for instructions on how to configure the operating parameters.

If the LED is displaying a number other than “0,” perform the following procedures to change it.

You may set the stack ID number from a local management session of the switch using the Console port or, because the switch has a factory IP address, from a Telnet management session from any of the unit’s networking ports. If you prefer to use the Console port, go to “Starting a Local Management Session,” next. To use the Telnet application protocol, go to “Starting a Telnet Management Session” on page 96. (You cannot use the web browser management interface to change the switch’s stack ID number.)

Caution

Setting the stack ID number resets the switch. Some network traffic may be lost if the device is already connected to a live network.

This procedure requires a terminal or a terminal emulator program and the management cable that comes with the switch. To start a local management session on the switch, perform the following procedure:

1.Connect the RJ-45 connector on the management cable to the Console port on the front panel of the switch.
