2960X Stack - Management Interfaces

Hi Guys,

 

I have a stack of 3 2960-X's and am looking to start using the dedicated management ports on them for out of band management. In theory the stack has 3 management interfaces, however there is only one 'interface FastEthernet0' in the config.

 

Does that mean I have to use the master and am not able to have management failover to the other stack members?

 

I read in the Cisco Docs that you are meant to put all 3 into a hub and then use that, but its 2021 and I dont have easy access to a hub! 🙂

 

Please could someone explain what I need to do here?

You just put all 3 to a switch in the same management VLAN and that's it, if the primary box in the stack fails it will drop down to the next one.
