IfyouareinstallinganoptionalSecureStackC2PoEredundantpowersupply(C2RPS‐
POE),refertotheinstallationinstructionssuppliedwiththeC2RPS‐POE.Theswitchis
connectedtoaC2RPS‐POEusingaC2RPS‐POECable.

Stack Initialization Overview
Whenyouinstallandconnectallthehigh‐speedstackingcablestotheswitchesinthe
stackbeforeapplyingpowertotheswitches,thefollowingoccurs:
•Theswitchthatwillmanage(Manager)thestackisautomaticallyestablishedwithall
otherswitchesestablishedasMemberswitchesinthestack.Whentheswitches
completetheirinitializations,oneoftheswitchesinthestackwillilluminateits
ManagerLED,indicatingthatitisthestackManager.TheManagerLEDoneach
Memberswitchwillbeoff.

malfunctions,ispowereddown,orisdisconnectedfrom
thestack.
Note: If the CPU LED illuminates solid red, there was a critical failure. For more
information about the LED indications and troubleshooting, refer to Chapter 4. If you need
additional help, contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to “Getting Help” on page 1-7 for
details.
Caution: The C2G124-48P and C2H124-48P are PoE-compliant devices. Do not connect
a SecureStack C2 Redundant Power System (C2RPS-SYS) to the power connector.
Otherwise damage to the device may result.
Precaución: Los dispositivos C2G124-48P y C2H124-48P cumplen con el estándar PoE
(power over ethernet). No conecte una fuente de poder redundante SecureStack C2
(C2RPS-SYS) al cable de corriente. De lo contrario, el dispositivo puede dañarse.
