Syntax:

stack member <switch-number>

mac-address <mac-addr>
[password<password-str>]

In the destination Commander, use

show stack all to find the MAC address of

the Member you want to pull into the destination stack. For example, suppose
you created a new Commander with a stack name of “Cold_Waters” and you
wanted to move a switch named “Bering Sea” into the new stack:

Figure 9-32. Example of Stack Listing with Two Stacks in the Subnet

You would then execute the following command to pull the desired switch
into the new stack:

SMC TigerSwitch 10/100(config)# stack member 1 mac-

address 0060b0-df1a00

Where

1

is an unused switch number (

SN

).

Since a password is not set on the Candidate, a password is not needed in this
example.

You could then use

show stack all

again to verify that the move took place.

Using a Member CLI To “Push” the Member into Another Stack.

You

can use the Member’s CLI to “push” an SMC6624M stack Member into a
destination stack if you know the MAC address of the destination Commander.

Syntax:

stack join <mac-addr>

where:

<mac-addr> is the MAC address of the Commander for the desti-

nation stack.

Converting a Commander to a Member of Another Stack.

Removing

the Commander from a stack eliminates the stack and returns its Members to
the Candidate pool with

Auto Join

disabled.

Move this switch into the “Cold Waters”
