Using the Commander To Manage The Stack
The Commander normally operates as your stack manager and point of entry
into other switches in the stack. This typically includes:
■ Adding new stack members
■ Moving members between stacks
■ Removing members from a stack
■ Accessing stack members for individual configuration changes and traffic
monitoring
The Commander also imposes its passwords on all stack members and pro-
vides SNMP community membership to the stack. (See “SNMP Community
Operation in a Stack” on page 9-46.)
