Stack Configuration
If you are configuring for a stack, the board’s secondary LAN
IP address must be a valid class B address, according to RFC
1597.
secondary IP address = 172.31. 1.17
network host
• Set the network half of the address between 172.16.0.0 and
172.31.0.0.
• Set the host half of the address to be the chassis’s stack
position number followed by the slot number of its
management card.
• All other chassis in the same stack must have an IP
address with the same network portion that was assigned to
the R502-M’s secondary interface. Increment the stack
positions by one. Up to seven chassis are supported in
each stack.
Example:
172.16.1.17 stack position 1, slot 17 (17-slot chassis)
172.16.2.12 stack position 2, slot 12 (12-slot chassis)
172.16.3.1 stack position 3, slot 1 (2-slot chassis)
• After manually configuring the first chassis in the stack, an
alternative method of adding other chassis is to use the
administrative level command: bootp -set. Refer to the
Console Commands section for further details.
The following questions pertain to the board’s primary
interface.
Should there be a default gateway for packet routing? [Y]
What is its IP address? [0.0.0.0]
The boot loader poses the following questions for hardware
parameters:
