For information about adding the management switch, see Add a switch as the stack
management switch on page 41.
If you are changing the role of an existing stack member to the role of stack member
or standby switch, see Change the setting for a switch in the stack on page 44.
To add a stack member or standby management switch:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Log in to the main UI with a web
browser on page 27 and the subsections.
The login page displays.
3. Click the Main UI Login button.
The main UI login page displays in a new tab.
4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Stacking > Basic > Stack Configuration.
The Stack Configuration page displays. The page shows different sections.
6. Go to the Stack Configuration section.
If you already added one or more switches as members to the stack, the members
show in the table.
7. From the Unit ID menu, select the ID of the member.
8. From the Switch Type menu, select the switch model.
9. Optionally, from the Switch Priority menu, select the priority of the switch that
determines if and when the switch becomes the stack management switch in the
automatic stack management election process.
The priority is in relation to the priority setting for other switches in the stack. A higher
value indicates a higher priority. The maximum value is 15. The default is unassigned.
If you set the priority to zero, the switch cannot become a stack management switch.
However, if the switch was assigned or elected stack management switch previously,
then it remains the stack management switch and other units are stack members.
10. From the Management Status menu, select if the switch must function as a stack
member (Stack Member) or as the standby management switch (Standby).
11. Click the Add button.
