Verifying the Stack

After resetting or powering on the devices and waiting four minutes for the
switches to complete initializing the management software and form the
stack, you should verify the stack. To verify the stack, perform the
following procedure:

1. Start a local or remote management session on the stack. You may

use the RS-232 Console port on any controller card in the stack to
establish a local management session. You do not have to use the RS-
232 Console port on the active master controller card.

Note

If you prefer to use the RS-232 Console port on the active master
controller card for the management session, you can determine the
active card by examining the CFC LEDs. The LEDs are green on the
active master controller card and amber on the standby master
controller cards.

2. Enter the ENABLE command to move from the User Exec mode to the

Privileged Exec mode:

awplus> enable
awplus#

3. In the Privileged Exec mode, enter the SHOW STACK command.

awplus# show stack

Figure 192 is an example of the command for a stack that has four
controller cards.

Figure 192. SHOW STACK Command

If the stack is operating properly the command lists the controller cards
in both switches of the stack. For instance, the command lists four
controller cards if there are two controller cards in each chassis. The
command displays only two controllers if each switch has only one
controller card.
