Selecting a Switch in an Enhanced Stack

The first thing that you should do before performing any procedure on a
switch in an enhanced stack is check to be sure that you are performing
it on the correct switch. If you assigned system names to your switches,
then it is very easy. The name of the switch being managed is always
displayed at the top of every management window.

When you start a management session on the Master switch of a subnet,
you are by default addressing that particular switch. The management
tasks that you perform effect only the master switch.

To manage a slave switch or another Master switch in the subnet, you
need to select it from the management software.

To select a switch to manage in an enhanced stack, perform the
following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 9 to select Enhanced Stacking.

2. From the Enhanced Stacking window, type 2 to select Stacking

Services.

The window in Figure 10 is displayed.
