Configuring the
Master Switch -
Part II
In Part II you add the member switches to the configuration of the master
switch and designate their Gigabit ports of the trunk. This is referred to as
provisioning the master switch. The procedure assumes you are
continuing directly from the previous procedure.
Table 23. Configuring the Master Switch to Use Gigabit Ports as the Stack Trunk - Part II
Step
Description and Command
Steps 1 to 2 add the member switches as provisioned switches to the master switch.
1
Enter the CONFIGURE TERMINAL command to move to the Global Configuration
mode.
awplus# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
awplus(config)#
2
Enter the SWITCH PROVISION command to add up to three member switches as
provisioned switches to the configuration of the master switch. (A stack with a trunk of
Gigabit ports can have up to four switches total.) Assign each unit a unique ID number
in the range of 2 to 4. These examples add two 28-port switches and one 52-port
switch as provisioned member switches on the master switch, with the IDs 2 to 4:
awplus(config)# switch 2 provision x930-28
awplus(config)# switch 3 provision x930-28
awplus(config)# switch 4 provision x930-52
Steps 3 and 4 designate the Gigabit ports that will be the trunk ports on the member switches.
3
Enter the port interface modes of the Gigabit ports on the provisioned member
switches to be the stack trunk. The trunk can have up to eight ports per switch. If you
filled out the Stack Worksheet, refer there for the ports. This example assumes the
member switches will use Gigabit ports 1 to 8 as the stack trunk:
awplus(config)# interface port2.0.1-2.0.8,port3.0.1-3.0.8,port4.0.1-
4.0.8
awplus(config-if)#
4
Enter the STACKPORT command to designate the selected Gigabit ports as the stack
trunk:
awplus(config-if)# stackport
% Save the config and restart the system for this change to take
effect.
The remaining steps save your changes and reboot the master switch.
5
Enter the EXIT command twice to return to the Privileged Exec mode.
awplus(config-if)# exit
awplus(config)# exit
