Installing the Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch

Note: The switch does not become the non-base unit until the next
time the switch is restarted.
Resetting the stack
To reset the stack using the UI button, follow this
procedure:
Step
Action
1
Press and hold the UI button for three seconds.
The unit is now in configuration mode. The color and status of the
Status LED turns to blinking green.
2

The Base, Up, and Down LEDs will move to a blinking amber state
and blink in unison.
3
Press and hold the UI button for three seconds to confirm the
command.
—End—
Abandoning a command
Once a command entered through the UI
button is accepted, the new configuration is stored in NVRAM. To abort a
command entered using the UI button, perform one of the following actions:
•
Wait approximately twenty seconds after entering the command (without
confirming it) and the input is ignored.
•
Exit configuration mode by pressing the UI button five or more times.
Note: Wait sixty seconds after the last configuration change before
resetting the unit. The system can take up to this long to save
configuration changes to the NVRAM. Stacks can be reset immediately
after the last configuration change without any loss of information.
Stack configuration using the Unit Select switch
The Unit Select switch is used to designate a switch in the stack as a base
or non-base unit. Sliding the switch to the right designates that switch as
the base unit. Only one switch in a stack may have the Unit Select switch in
the base unit position. All other switches in the stack must have the Unit
Select switch in the left position which designates them as non-base units.
