Do one of the following:

To disable stacking on the Candidate, use the Space bar to select 
the 

Disabled

 option, then go to step 5. 

Note:

 Using the menu interface to disable stacking on a Candidate 

removes the Candidate from all stacking menus. 

To insert the Candidate into a specific Commander’s stack:

i.

Use the space bar to select Member.

ii.

Press

To change 

Auto Join

, use the Space bar.

To change 

Transmission Interval

, type in the new value in the range 

of 1 to 300 seconds.

Note:

 All switches in the stack must be set to the same transmis-

sion interval to help ensure proper stacking operation. HP recom-
mends that you leave this parameter set to the default 60 seconds.

Then go to step 5.

5.

Stacking menu.

Using the Commander To Manage The Stack

The Commander normally operates as your stack manager and point of entry 
into other switches in the stack. This typically includes:

Adding new stack members

Moving members between stacks

Removing members from a stack

Accessing stack members for individual configuration changes and traffic 
monitoring

The Commander also imposes its passwords on all stack members and pro-
vides SNMP community membership to the stack. (See “SNMP Community 
Operation in a Stack” on page 9-46.)
