The Master switch polls the network for all slave and other Master
switches in 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.

bootloader files are explained in Chapter 20, File Downloads and

By default, the switches are sorted in the menu by MAC address.
You can sort the switches by name as well by selecting the option
S - Sort Switches in New Order.

The default user name and password for manager access is
“manager” and “friend”, respectively. The default user name and
password for operator access is “operator” and “operator”. User

Returning to

the Master

Switch

When you have finished managing a slave switch and want to manage
another switch in the subnet, return to the Main Menu of the slave
switch and type Q for Quit. This returns you to the Stacking Services
menu. Once you see that menu, you are again addressing the Master
switch from which you started the management session.

You can either select another switch in the list to manage or, if you want
to manage the Master switch, return to the master switch’s Main Menu
by typing R twice.
