Figure 73 Deploying task succeeded Configuration of the switches in room B is the same as that of the switches in room A except that you need to perform the following configuration: { Create device class Device_B for switches in room B. { Add switches in room B to the device class Device_B. { Bind the configuration file corresponding to switches in room B to the device class Device_B. 2. Configure the DHCP server:
204 I n thi s e xample , the DHC P se r ve r is an HP s w i tc h su ppor ti ng the O ptio n 4 3 fu nc ti on. I f yo u r DHC P server is not an HP switch supporting the Option 43 function, see the user manual came with your server. Configure a DHCP address pool. Assign IP addresses to CPEs and the DNS server. In this example, the addresses are in the ne twork segment 10.185.10.0/24. # Enable DHCP. system-view [DHCP_server] dhcp enable # Enable the DHCP server on VLAN-interface 1. [DHCP_server] interface vlan-interface 1 [DHCP_server-Vlan-interface1] dhcp select server global-pool [DHCP_server-Vlan-interface1] quit # Exclude IP addresses (addresses of the DNS server and ACS server). [DHCP_server] dhcp server forbidden-ip 10.185.10.41 [DHCP_server] dhcp server forbidden-ip 10.185.10.60 # Configure DHCP address pool 0 (subnet and DNS server address).

Configure the DNS server: Configure the mappings between the domain name and IP address, that is, create the mapping between the addresses http://acs.database:9090/acs and http://10.185.1.41:9090/acs . For how to create a mapping between addresses, see the user manual came with your DNS server. 4. Connect CPEs to the network: Connect the CPEs with network cables and powe r them on, the CPEs can automatically obtain configuration files from the ACS server. 5. Verify the configuration on the ACS server: Click the Resource tab, select Device Interaction Log from the navigation tree to enter the page for querying device interaction records. You can vi ew whether the deployment configuration of a switch is completed.
206 Configuring a stack (available only on the HP 5500 SI) The stack management feature enables you to configure and monitor a group of connected switches by logging in to one switch in the stack, as shown in Figure 75. Figure 75 Network diagram for stack management To s e t u p a s t a c k f o r a g ro u p o f c o n n e c t e d swi t c h e s , yo u m u s t l o g i n t o o n e swi t c h t o c re a t e t h e s t a ck . T h i s switch is the master switch for the stack, and you configure and monitor all other member switches on the master switch. The ports that connect the stack member switches are called stack ports. Stack configuration task list Task Remarks Configuring the master device of a stack Configuring a private IP address pool for the stack Required Configuring stack ports Required Creating a stack Required Configuring stack member switches Configuring the stack ports of a member device Required Logging in to the CLI of a member from the master Optional Configuring the master device of a stack Perform the tasks in this section to configure the master device. After you complete the stack configuration, the master automatically add member devices to the stack.
207 Always start configuring the master device with assigning a private IP address pool for the stack. You cannot perform this task after the switch is configured as the master device or a member device. Configuring a private IP address pool for the stack Make sure that the number of IP addresses in the address pool is equal to or greater than the number of devices to be added to the stack. If not, some devi ces cannot automatically join the stack for lack of private IP addresses. To configure a private IP address pool for the stack: Step Command Remarks 1. Enter system view. system-view N/A 2. Configure a private IP address pool for the stack. stack ip-pool ip-address { mask | mask-length } By default, no IP address pool is configured for a stack. Configuring stack ports Configure the ports that connect the mast er to member devices as stack ports. To configure stack ports: Step Command Remarks 1. Enter system view. system-view N/A 2. Configure the specified ports as stack ports. stack stack-port stack-port-num port interface-list By default, no ports are stack ports. Creating a stack After you execute the stack role master command, the device becomes the master device of a stack and automatically adds the devices connecte d to its stack ports to the stack. To create a stack: Step Command 1. Enter system view. system-view 2. Create a stack. stack role master After you configure a device as the master device of a stack, the prompt changes to , where Sysname is the system name of the device. Configuring the stack ports of a member device To add a device to a stack, you must configure the ports that connect the device to other stack members as stack ports. To configure stack ports:
208 Step Command Remarks 1. Enter system view. system-view N/A 2. Configure the specified ports as stack ports. stack stack-port stack-port-num port interface-list By default, a port is not a stack port. After a device joins a stack and becomes a member device of the stack, the prompt changes to , where n is the stack number assigned by the master device, and Sysname is the system name of the device. Logging in to the CLI of a member from the master Perform this task on the master device in user view. Task Command Log in to the CLI of a member device from the master device. stack switch-to member-id The stack switch-to command does not change the user privilege level. To return to the master device, use the quit command. Displaying and maintaining stack configuration Task Command Remarks Display the stack configuration of stack members. display stack [ members ] [ | { begin | exclude | include } regular-expression ] Available in any view Stack configuration example Network requirements Switch A, Switch B, Switch C, and Switch D are connected with one another. Create a stack, where Switch A is the master device, Switch B, Switch C, and Switch D are member devices. An administrator can log in to Switch B, Switch C and Switch D through Switch A to perform remote configurations.
