ProCurve Stack Management

Configuring Stack Management

You would then execute this command in the “North Sea” switch’s CLI to remove the switch from the stack:

North Sea(config)# no stack join 0030c1-7fec40

Using the CLI To Access Member Switches for Configuration

Changes and Traffic Monitoring

After a Candidate becomes a Member, you can use the telnet command from the Commander to access the Member’s CLI or console interface for the same configuration and monitoring that you would do through a Telnet or direct- connect access from a terminal.

Syntax: telnet <switch-number>

where: unsigned integer is the switch number (SN) assigned by the

Commander to each member (range: 1 - 15).

To find the switch number for the Member you want to access, execute the show stack view command in the Commander’s CLI. For example, suppose that you wanted to configure a port trunk on the switch named “North Sea” in the stack named “Big_Waters”. Do do so you would go to the CLI for the “Big_Waters” Commander and execute show stack view to find the switch number for the “North Sea” switch:

The switch number (SN) for the “North Sea” switch is “3”.

Figure 8-36. Example of a Stack Showing Switch Number (SN) Assignments

To access the “North Sea” console, you would then execute the following telnet command:

ProCurve(config)# telnet 3

You would then see the CLI prompt for the “North Sea” switch, allowing you to configure or monitor the switch as if you were directly connected to the console.
