Figure 6-1. Cascade application.
NOTE: An IP-based module must be at the top of the cascade. You cannot
configure an IP-supported module as a slave.
NOTE: When creating a cascade, the master switch must be rebooted in the
correct sequence. During this procedure, any PS/2-based critical servers
may also need to be rebooted because the ServSwitch emulates a
keyboard and mouse on all targets.
