Resetting a Stack
This section contains the procedure for resetting an AT-8316F or
AT-8324 switch stack.
Note
You cannot reset just one switch in a switch stack. You must reset
the entire stack.
To reset a stack, perform the following procedure:
1. Press the Reset button on the front panel of the slave switches.
2. Press the Reset button on the master switch.
Note
You should reset the slave switches first, before the master switch.
Each switch in the stack will perform a series of internal self-
tests, indicated by a flashing Fault LED (shown in Figure 3-2).
After a switch has finished running its self tests, the Fault LED
will stop flashing and will remain OFF.
3. Wait while the master switch performs the topology discovery
process. This process is used by the master switch to determine
the number and types of switches that constitute the stack.
During the discovery process, which takes less than one minute to
complete, the port LEDs on each switch will flash in sequence, the
slave switches first and the master switch last.
