Instruction manual

-- If there is only one Business Policy Switch unit in
your mixed stack configuration, and it fails, the
next upstream BayStack 450 Switch unit will
become the temporary base unit and will continue
stack operation. The base unit change is indicated
by the Base LED on the temporary base unit’s LED
display panel turning on (yellow).
•
Automatic failover
-- The automatic failover to a
temporary base unit is a temporary safeguard only.
If the stack configuration loses power, the temporary
base unit will not power up as the base unit when
power is restored. For this reason, you should always
assign the temporary base unit as the designated base
unit (assign another Business Policy Switch, if
available) until the failed unit is repaired or replaced.
Set the Unit Select switch on the temporary base unit
to Base (up = Base) to reassign it as the new base unit.
•
Removing a unit from the stack
-- If a unit is removed
from the stack (therefore operating in standalone
mode), the following switch configuration settings
revert back to the settings configured before the unit
became a member of the stack:
-- IP address
-- Console password
-- TELNET password
-- SNMP community strings
