switch provision

To supply a configuration to a new switch before it joins the switch stack, use the switch provision command
in global configuration mode on the stack master. To delete all configuration information that is associated
with the removed switch (a stack member that has left the stack), use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
For type, enter the model number of a supported switch that is listed in the command-line help strings.
To avoid receiving an error message, you must remove the specified switch from the switch stack before using
the no form of this command to delete a provisioned configuration.
To change the switch type, you must also remove the specified switch from the switch stack. You can change
the stack member number of a provisioned switch that is physically present in the switch stack if you do not
also change the switch type.
If the switch type of the provisioned switch does not match the switch type in the provisioned configuration
on the stack, the switch stack applies the default configuration to the provisioned switch and adds it to the
stack. The switch stack displays a message when it applies the default configuration.
Provisioned information appears in the running configuration of the switch stack. When you enter the copy
running-config startup-config privileged EXEC command, the provisioned configuration is saved in the
startup configuration file of the switch stack.
