Configuring System Information

ProSafe M5300 Switch

Stack Configuration

From this page, you can preconfigure stack members before adding them to the stack,

change the unit number assigned to a stack member, and to select a new stack master or

give management preference to one or more units. If you change the unit ID on a stack

member, the member reloads. A stack move causes all routes and layer 2 addresses to be

lost. The administrator is prompted to confirm the management move.

To display the Stack Configuration page, click System  Stacking  Basic  Stack

Configuration. A screen similar to the following is displayed.

To select a new stack master:

1. In the Management Unit Selected menu, select the unit ID of the stack member to

become the stack master.

2. A message indicating that moving stack management will unconfigure entire stack including

all interfaces.

3. Click OK to confirm the selection and reload the stack. The stack will be unavailable until the

boot process completes.

To configure a stack member before adding it to the stack:

1. Select the Unit ID of the stack member to add.

2. Select the switch model number of the new unit from the Switch Type field.

3. Optionally, specify the Switch Priority to select whether you want this unit to become a

management unit in preference to another unit. The default value for this setting is

undefined. If the preference level is set to zero, then the device cannot become a

management unit. A higher value indicates a higher priority, the maximum value is 15.

4. Use the Management Status field to indicate whether the selected switch is the stack

master, a normal stacking member, or the standby unit. A standby unit takes over the stack

master responsibilities if the stack master becomes unavailable.

5. Click Add to add the preconfigured unit to the stack.
