Example 174 Viewing the stack after adding a new member
Manually adding a Candidate to a stack (Menu)
In the default configuration, you must manually add stack Members from the Candidate pool.
Reasons for a switch remaining a Candidate instead of becoming a Member include any of the
following:
Auto Grab in the Commander is set to No (the default).
Auto Join in the Candidate is set to No.
NOTE: When a switch leaves a stack and returns to Candidate status, its Auto Join
parameter resets to No so that it will not immediately rejoin a stack from which it has just
departed.
A Manager password is set in the Candidate.
The stack is full.
Unless the stack is already full, use the Stack Management screen to manually convert a Candidate
to a Member. If the Candidate has a Manager password, you will need to use it to make the
Candidate a Member of the stack.
1. To add a Member, start at the Main Menu and select: 9. Stacking... —> 4. Stack Management
You will then see the Stack Management screen.
