To instantly create a stack, onboard the switches into ExtremeCloud IQ using the
ExtremeCloud IQ mobile app. Unbox the switches, connect the stacking/power/uplink
cables, and push the
Mode button until the
STK LED lights up.
Hold down the
Mode button for at least 5 seconds, until all the front-panel port
LEDs flash. The stack forms automatically, all the slots reboot, and ExtremeCloud IQ
detects the newly formed stack.
Note
If you are replacing a stack due to a failed
member, with a stack that has the same SKU in EXOS, the replacement slot is
handled with the
Replace Stack Members action. On
x440g2/5320/5420/5520 EXOS stacks, select the stack, and select the
Replace Stack Memebers action within
Utilities. Select the member, enter the serial
number, and select
Replace.
Use this task to instantly configure a Switch Engine stack in
ExtremeCloud IQ.
