b. All stacking functionalities of the S3300 extend to these two M4300 platforms.
However, Non-Stop Forwarding (NSF) is not supported.
c. Either S3300 or M4300 can be stack master or standby.
d. CLI under the console port is not supported.
e. Service port is not supported for management or any other purposes.
4. New features for the M4300 running the Smart 6.6.4.x image are:
• Smart Control Center (SCC) can be used to discover the Smart M4300 and do some
basic settings, the same as can be done on the S3300.
• The Reset button on the front panel of the M4300 models can be used to reset the
unit to the factory default.
- When the Reset button is pressed 2–5 seconds, the switch will simply reset
(reload).
- When the Reset button is pressed over 5 seconds, the switch will clear all
configuration followed by a reload of the factory default settings.
Basic Stack Configuration
Use the Stack Configuration screen to move the Primary Management Unit functionality
from one unit to another. When applied, the entire stack (including all interfaces in the stack)
is unconfigured and reconfigured with the configuration on the new Primary Management
Unit. After the reload is complete, all stack management capability must be performed on the
new Primary Management Unit. To preserve the current configuration across a stack move,
save the current configuration to the nvram before performing the stack move. A stack move
causes all routes and Layer 2 addresses to be lost. The system prompts the administrator to
confirm the management move before the changes are applied.
Management Unit Selection
 To do basic stack configuration:
1. Click System > Stacking > Basic > Stack Configuration.
2. Select the Management Unit. The Management Unit Selected field displays the Current
Primary Management Unit. You can change it by selecting another unitID listed here.
3. Click the Cancel button to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the
screen to the latest value of the switch.
4. Click the Apply button to send the updated configuration to the switch. Configuration
changes take effect immediately.
Note: The Move Management operation may cause a change in the system
IP address when the IP address is assigned by a DHCP server.
