Enhanced
Stacking
When you start a local management session on a switch configured as a
Master switch, you can manage all the switches in the enhanced stack
from the same management session. This saves you the time and trouble
of having to start a separate local management session each time you
want to manage a switch in your network. It also saves you from having to
go to the different wiring closets where the switches are located.
For information on enhanced stacking and how to manage different
switches from the same management session, refer to Chapter 4,
“Enhanced Stacking” on page 79.
Quitting a Local
Session
To quit a local session, return to the Main Menu and type Q for Quit.
You should always exit from a management session when you are finished
managing a switch. This can prevent unauthorized individuals from making
changes to a switch’s configuration should you leave your management
station unattended.
Note
You cannot run both a local management session and a Telnet
management session on the same switch simultaneously. Failure to
properly exit from a local or Telnet management session may block
future management sessions.
