NOTE: The console port supports asynchronous data of eight data bits, one stop bit, no parity bit, and no flow control. The default baud rate is 9600 bps.
NOTE: If you are installing a stack of switches, you need to assemble and cable the stack before powering up and configuring it. When a stack is powered up for the first time, the switches elect a Master Switch, which may occupy any location in the stack. Connect the terminal to the Master Switch. If you connect the terminal to a subordinate switch, you will not be able to use the CLI.
The Standby unit is preconfigured in the stack; however, you can use the CLI to select a different stack member as Standby. See the CLI Reference Guide for more information.
