    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:

    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). 
    [DHCP_server] dhcp server ip-pool 0

    [DHCP_server-dhcp-pool-0] dns-list 10.185.10.60 
    Configure Option 43 to contain the ACS address, username, and password. 
    # Covert the ACS address, username, and passwor d to ASCII code. The ASCII code of the URL 
    address is 68 74 74 70 3A 2F 2F 61 63 73 2E 64 61 74 61 62 61 73 65 3A 39 30 39 30 2F 
    61 63 73, that of the username Vicky is 76 69 63 6B 79, and that of the password 12345 is 31 
    32 33 34 35.

    3.  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.

    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

    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.
