    How exactly is this meant to be done:

    • Connect the management interfaces of the primary and secondary members to the same L2 network

    pls, Enyone

    It means exactly connecting them (a) to the same Broadcast Domain (a dedicated VLAN you're going to use *for* Management and also for the Split-Detection between VSF members, as example) or connecting them (b) directly each other (really point-to-point), in this latter (b) case you're going to lose the possibility to access both Management interfaces since those ones are connectly directly and not by means of an auxiliary switch (as it should happen in the former (a) case).

    There is no separate "management interfaces of the primary and secondary members", in a stack
    (make note of the plural: s)

    It states a (L2) VLAN, not a (L3) ip adress.

    If utilizing a L3 ip-adress in either the default or mgmt VRF, (for management)

    and a dual link to any core north-bound .

    There will be an Ip address conflict from the core, and consequently, NO management interface

    In a split-stack where a broken stack (into two); contain two Conductors, or Standbys
