7-6. IP Stacking
The IP stacking function allows up to eight MIL-SM2401M-STK switches to be
joined as a single unit group. The stackable switches can then be managed
through a single IP address. When configuring the stacking function, please
review the following guidelines.
„ Any port on the switch can be used for stacking.
„ All switches which are to be stacked together must be in the same network
before the stacking function can be configured.
„ The master switch must be configured first, followed by the slave switches.
„ Slave switches can be viewed independently as read-only data. Updates
must be made through the master switch.
„ To remove the master switch from a stacking group, remove all slave
switches first and then remove the master switch from stacking group.
„ If the master switch has been removed from the stacking group before the
slave switches, use the Console Interface Menu to EITHER re-configure
the switch configuration for each slave switch OR re-configure one of the
slave switches as the master switch.
