Chapter 3: Preparing the Switches of the Stack
56
Labelling the Switches
Starting with either the top or bottom switch of the stack, assign a number
starting with 1 to each unit and affix a label with the number to the unit’s
front panel or adjacent to it on the equipment rack. These numbers will be
the switches’ static module ID numbers. When numbering the switches,
note the following:
ˆ
The range of the number is 1 to 5 or 1 to 8, depending on the
maximum size of the stack, as explained in “Maximum Number of
Switches in a Stack” on page 43.
ˆ
Although the switches can be numbered in any order, numbering them
starting with the top switch or the bottom switch will make identifying
them easier.
ˆ
The switch assigned number 1 will be the master switch of the stack.
The master switch can be any switch in a stack.
ˆ
In a stack with both 24-port and 48-port switches, the master switch
can be either model.
ˆ
The label should also include the switch’s MAC address, which is
found on a label on the unit’s back panel. Having both the switch
numbers and MAC addresses on the labels will make it easier for you
to verify and manage the units.
An example stack of three switches with labels is shown in Figure 21.
