Renumbering the Stack 4

Renumbering the Stack

If the units are no longer numbered sequentially after several topology changes or failures, you can reset the unit numbers using the “Renumbering” command. Just remember to save the new configuration settings to a startup configuration file prior to powering off the stack Master.

Note: This switch does not support stacking.

Command Usage

The startup configuration file maps configuration settings to each switch in the stack based on the unit identification number. You should therefore remember to save the current configuration after renumbering the stack.

For a line topology, the stack is numbered from top to bottom, with the first unit in the stack designated at unit 1. For a ring topology, the Master unit taken as the top of the stack and is numbered as unit 1, and all other units are numbered sequentially down through the ring.

Web – Click System, Renumbering.
