Chassis ID Numbers
As explained in the AT-MCF2000 Multi-channel Media Converter Series
Installation Guide, you can form a management stack of multiple chassis
by linking them together with the AT-MCF2000S Stacking Module. A
management stack makes managing the devices easier because you can
configure the units from the same management session from one
AT-MCF2000M Management Module.
When building a management stack you have to assign each of the
chassis a unique ID number. This number is set with a jumper on the
AT-MCF2000M Management Module and with the DIP switches on the
AT-MCF2000S Stacking Module. The AT-MCF2000M Management
Module can have a chassis ID number of 0 or 31 and the AT-MCF2000S
Stacking Module can have a chassis ID number of 1 to 30.
Chassis ID numbers are required in commands that have the chassis
parameter. This parameter is used to specify the ID number of the chassis
you want to configure with the command. If the chassis has the
management module, then its ID number will be either 0 or 31. (In all
likelihood, it’ll be 0, the default setting.) If the chassis is part of a
management stack and therefore has the AT-MCF2000S Stacking
Module, its chassis ID number will be in the range of 1 to 30. To determine
the ID number of a chassis with the AT-MCF2000S Stacking Module, view
the chassis ID LEDs on the front panel of the module or use the SYSTEM
SHOW CLUSTER command. For instructions, refer to “SYSTEM SHOW
CLUSTER” on page 101.
