Modifying an Existing Stack
Configuration
This section provides examples of how to modify an
existing stack configuration. The examples assume the
stack configuration is operational with connected stations.
Always notify the attached stations that there may be a
temporary disruption of the network services before you
begin the modification.
To maintain the unit numbering within the stack, Bay
Networks recommends that you renumber the entire stack
after any modification involving configuration changes.
See the Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series
Switch guide for more information about renumbering.
This section includes the following topics:
• Assigning a new base unit to the stack
• Adding units to the stack
• Removing/replacing units from the stack
Note: Renumbering causes the entire stack to be
reset with the current configuration settings. The
Reset can take up to 30 seconds for completion.
Notify the connected stations that there will be a
short disruption of network services before
renumbering the stack.
