Hi,<br />
I need to change a defective stack master switch on a stack with 2x 3750.<br />
I would like to know if I'll lose the running config, or if the second switch will reboot automaticly ( or the switch will need a reboot ).<br />
Because the second switch in the stack is used by a lot of our equipements so I don't want ( if possible ) to have any downtime.<br />
Thanks a lot!

Hi,

What to do if I want to change the stack master Cisco 3750 switch.

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
