2.4 Stack Installation
There are two RJ-45 ports on the front panel for proprietary management stack. Only
straight-through UTP/STP cable can be used.
Plug one end of the cable in the IN port and the other end to the OUT port of next
device. Repeat the step for every device in the stack cluster, then ending at last switch.
ëNote
Before management stacking, be sure of every
device uses a unique
SWITCH ID, or the management stack will not work. The switch with
least SWITCH ID will become Master. Only Master switchs management
interface (console, telnet, web and SNMP) is accessible.
Please find the following picture for sample connection. Please note the stack port is for
management only. For data packets to be transmitted between switches, you will still
need to connect their network ports.
