CLI Command

Operation

 

 

[no] stack member

Commander: Adds a Candidate to stack membership. “No” form removes a

<switch-num>

Member from stack membership. To easily determine the MAC address of a

mac-address <mac-addr>

Candidate, use the show stack candidates command. To determine the MAC

address of a Member you want to remove, use the show stack view command.The

[password <password-str>]

password (password-str) is required only when adding a Candidate that has a

 

 

Manager password.

 

 

telnet <1..15>

Commander: Uses the SN (switch number— assigned by the stack Commander)

 

to access the console interface (menu interface or CLI) of a stack member. To view

Used In: Commander Only

the list of SN assignments for a stack, execute the show stack command in the

Commander’s CLI.

 

 

 

[no] stack join <mac-addr>

Candidate: Causes the Candidate to join the stack whose Commander has the

 

indicated MAC address. “No” form is used in a Member to remove it from the stack

 

of the Commander having the specified address.

 

Member: “Pushes” the member to another stack whose Commander has the

 

indicated MAC address.

 

 

[no] stack auto-join

Candidate: Enables Candidate to automatically join the stack of any Commander

 

in the IP subnet that has Auto Grab enabled, or disables Auto-Joinin the candidate.

 

Default: Auto Join enabled.

 

Note: If the Candidate has a Manager password or if the available stack(s) already

 

have the maximum of 15 Members, the automatic join will not occur.

 

 

stack transmission-interval

All Stack Members: specifies the interval in seconds for transmitting stacking

 

discovery packets.

 

Default: 60 seconds
