3. Type 1 to select Get/Refresh List of Switches.

The Master switch polls the subnet for all slave and Master switches
that are a part of the enhanced stack and displays a list of the switches
in the Stacking Services menu.

The Master switch on which you started the management session is
not included in the list, nor are any switches with an enhanced stacking
status of Unavailable.

By default, the switches are sorted in the menu by MAC address. You
can sort the switches by name using the selection 2 - Sort Switches in
New Order.

Note

Menu option “4 - Load Image/Bootloader File” uploads the AT-S62
image from the Master switch to another AT-8500 Series switch in
the enhanced stack. The option is explained in “Uploading an
AT-S62 Image File Switch to Switch” on page 196. Option
“5 - Load
Configuration File” allows you to upload a configuration file from a
Master switch to another AT-8500 Series switch. This option is
explained in “Uploading an AT-S62 Configuration File Switch to
Switch” on page 199.

4. To manage a new switch, type 3 to select Access Switch.

5. Type the number of the switch in the list you want to manage.

6. Enter the appropriate username and password for the switch.

The Main Menu of the selected switch is displayed. You now can
manage the switch. Any management tasks you perform affect only
the selected switch.
