Hi! Alex, I know the concept, and I know that I have to renumber the new switch as a member of the switch stack. That number will be 1 same as the other two switches. What I am facing is that we are going to turn off the master switch to lower it down one level so that the new switch will be on top of it. The new switch will be a member due to it's priority value set to 1 but what about the configuration? How can the configuration from the master switch be propogated to the new switch and the master switch will take on the next set of configuration fies. The first two switches are labelled as: 1/0/1, 1/0/2, 1/0/3, etc..., 1/0/48. (Member, switch 1) 2/0/1, 2/0/2, 2/0/3, etc... 2/0/48 (Member, switch 2) 3/0/1, 3/0/2, 3/0/3, etc... 3/0/24 (Master, switch 3) We then want to install the new switch in this manner: 1/0/1, 1/0/2, 1/0/3, etc..., 1/0/48. (Member, switch 1) 2/0/1, 2/0/2, 2/0/3, etc... 2/0/48 (Member, switch 2) 3/0/1, 3/0/2, 3/0/3, etc... 3/0/48 (Member, switch 3) 4/0/1, 4/0/2, 4/0/3, etc... 4/0/24 (Master, switch 4) What is the command line so that the config in switch 4 propogates to switch 3? ...

Hi! In the current client setup, there is a login AD to authenticate usernames and passwords There is also a GPO, where laptops are connected to the wifi using a certificate. My boss wants to setup a system where when the laptop is connected, it will auto authenticate it. Let's say this is a company laptop and connected to the AD, then it will have access to network resources using one vlan. If a laptop that is used by a non-client, then it will will have access using another vlan. Are these details sufficient? Is there anything else you would like to know? ... View more
