Use this method if any of the following apply:
-
The Candidate's
Auto Join
is set toYes
and you do not want to enableAuto Grab
on the Commander, or the Candidate'sAuto Join
is set toNo
. -
Either you know the MAC address of the Commander for the stack into which you want to insert the Candidate, or the Candidate has a valid IP address and is operating in your network.
Syntax:
Pushing a candidate into a stack
Suppose a Candidate named North Sea
with Auto Join
off and a valid IP address of 10.28.227.104 is running on a network. You could Telnet to the Candidate, use show stack all
to determine the Commander's MAC address, and then push the Candidate into the desired stack.
To verify that the Candidate successfully joined the stack, execute show stack all
again to view the stacking status.
