	When you configure a private IP address pool for a stack, the number of IP addresses
	in the address pool needs to be equal to or greater than the number of devices to be
	added to the stack. Otherwise, some devices might not be able to join the stack
	automatically for lack of private IP addresses.
	Enable the device to establish a stack.

	device of the stack and automatically adds the devices connected to its stack ports to
