If you have a single amber connection that is normal
(STP blocking).
If you're looking to manage with a single IP address,
clustering is the way to go. Clustering provides the
multidevice management technology, where stacking
provides the physical interconnectivity. From the
command switch, you can use the command "rcommand X"
where x is the number of the other switch member. You
can also use the CMS web interface to connect to the
management address assigned, view the topology, and
adjust settings for any port in the cluster.
"Switch Clustering technology allows customers to
manage a stack of devices within a wiring closet or a
broadly dispersed set of devices across a campus as a
single IP entity. Switch Clustering technology uses
standard TCP/IP packets to distribute and collect
management information for all switches in the
cluster. Switch Clustering supports a broad range of
physical interconnections, including the GigaStack
GBIC."
