Monitoring Stacks
As shown in the figure below, OmniSwitch 6600 Family stacks can be managed and monitored with
Command Line Interface (CLI) commands, WebView, SNMP, and OmniVista. See “Monitoring Stack
Topology” on page4-19 for information on monitoring stack configurations and see Chapter 2,
“OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components,” for information on monitoring and moni-

Note. See the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide for complete descriptions of CLI commands.
Monitoring Stack Topology
To monitor the topology of individual switches within a stack or all switches within a stack use the show
stack topology command by entering
-> show stack topology
at the CLI prompt. A screen similar to the following will be displayed:
Link A Link A Link A Link B Link B Link B
NI Role State RemoteNI RemoteLink State RemoteNI RemoteLink
---+-----------+---------+---------+-----------+---------+---------+----------
1 PRIMARY ACTIVE 2 27 ACTIVE 2 28
2 SECONDARY ACTIVE 1 51 ACTIVE 1 52
The Role field displays the Chassis Management Module (CMM) role of the switch. The “RemoteNI and
“RemoteLink” fields display how the stacking ports are connected to each other within this stack. “Link
A” refers to the left-hand stacking port (Port 27 on OS6624, OS6600-U24, OS6600-P24, and OS6602-24
switches and Port 51 on OS6648 and 6602-48 switches) and “Link B” refers to the right-hand stacking
port (Port 28 on OS6624, OS6600-U24, OS6600-P24, and OS6602-24 switches and Port 52 on OS6648
and OS6602-48 switches).
