Member number and its stack port number.
Stack Port Status

•
Down—A cable is detected, but either no connected neighbor is up,
or the stack port is disabled.
•
OK—A cable is detected, and the connected neighbor is up.
Neighbor
Switch number of the active member at the other end of the stack cable.
Cable Length
