•
Mounted the new switch in a rack.
•
Confirmed that the new switch is powered off.
•
If you are expanding a preprovisioned configuration, made a note of the serial number
(on the back of the switch). You will need to edit the Virtual Chassis configuration to
include the serial number of the new member switch.
•
If you are expanding a preprovisioned configuration, edited the existing Virtual Chassis
configuration to include the serial number of the new member switch. You can specify
the role of the new member switch when you add its serial number in the Virtual Chassis
configuration file. The parameters specified in the master Virtual Chassis configuration
file are applied after the new member switch has been interconnected to an existing
member switch.
NOTE:
After you have created a preprovisioned Virtual Chassis
configuration, you can use the autoprovisioning feature to add member
switches to that configuration.
To add a new member switch to an existing Virtual Chassis configuration within the same
wiring closet:
1.
If the new member switch has been previously configured, revert that switch’s
configuration to the factory defaults. For information about reverting to the factory
default configuration, see the
Dell PowerConnect J-Series Ethernet Switch Complete
Software Guide for Junos OS
at
http://www.support.dell.com/manuals
.
2.
Interconnect the unpowered new switch to at least one member of the existing Virtual
Chassis configuration using the dedicated Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs).
3.
Power on the new switch.
4.
Confirm that the new member switch is now included within the Virtual Chassis
configuration by checking the front-panel display for the member ID. It should display
a member ID that is higher than 0 (1 through 9), because there is already at least one
member of the Virtual Chassis configuration.
NOTE:
If you are using a preprovisioned configuration, the member ID is
automatically assigned to the member’s serial number in the configuration
file.
