Managing Switch Stacks
v1.0, Jan 2007
Stack members in the same switch stack cannot have the same stack member number. Every stack
member, including a standalone switch, retains its member number until you manually change the
number or unless the number is already being used by another member in the stack.
See
“Renumbering Stack Members”
and
“Merging Two Operational Stacks”
.
Stack Member Priority Values
A stack member priority can be changed if the user would like change who is the master of the
stack. Use the following command to change stack member's priority (this command is in the
global config mode):
switch
unit
priority
value
Switch Stack Offline Configuration
You can use the offline configuration feature to preconfigure (supply a configuration to) a new
switch before it joins the switch stack. You can configure in advance the stack member number,
the switch type, and the interfaces associated with a switch that is not currently part of the stack
(see
“Preconfiguration”
Effects of Adding a Preconfigured Switch to a Switched Stack
When you add a preconfigured switch to the switch stack, the stack applies either the
preconfigured configuration or the default configuration.
Table 19-1
lists the events that occur
when the switch stack compares the preconfigured configuration with the new switch:
