# For purposes of redundancy, it is probably a good idea to assign
IP addresses to two switches in each subnet. In this way, should
you need to remove one switch with an IP address from a subnet,
such as for maintenance, the second switch will still be available
for you to remotely manage your Fast Ethernet switches.
Figure 16 illustrates the enhanced stacking feature. The figure illustrates
a network consisting of two subnets. Subnet A has eight AT-8000 Series
Switches and Subnet B has six switches. Two switches in each subnet
have been assigned unique IP addresses.
Figure 16 Enhanced Stacking
To manage the switches of a particular subnet, the network
administrator can establish either a local or remote management session
with a switch that has an IP address in that particular subnet. Once the
session is established, the administrator has full management access to
all the AT-8000 Series Switches in the same subnet.
