Switch Stacks

Managed Switches
that can occur when the switch stack compares the preconfigured configuration with the new
switch.
Renumber Stack Members
This example is provided as CLI commands and a web interface procedure.
CLI: Renumber Stack Members
Note: When you issue a command such as move management or
renumber, NETGEAR recommends that you wait until the command
fully executes before issuing the next command. For example, after
you issue a reset command for a stack member, issue the show
port command to verify that the switch remerged with the stack and
that all ports joined before you issue a next command.
• If specific numbering is required, NETGEAR recommends that you assign stack
members their numbers when they are first installed and configured in the stack.
• If the stack unit number for a switch is unused, you can renumber the unit by issuing the
switch <oldunit-id> renumber <newunit-id> global config mode command.
• If you preconfigured the new unit ID, you might need to remove the new unit ID from the
configuration before renumbering the unit.
• If you need to reassign multiple existing stack unit numbers, the configuration could
become mismatched. To avoid this situation, NETGEAR recommends that you power
down all switches except the master, and then add them back one at a time (see Add
Switches to an Operating Stack on page 444).
