DXS-3600 Series Layer 3 Managed 10Gigabit Ethernet Switch CLI Reference Guide
Command Default Level
Level: 12.
Usage Guideline
Use this command to configure the priority for the specified switch unit. When switch units are daisy-
chained together as a stack, the unit with the best priority will be elected as the master. The unit with the
next best priority will be elected as the backup master. A lower value means the higher priority. When two
switch units have the same priority, the unit with the smaller MAC address will get the higher priority. The
new priority setting will be saved in individual switch units when the user saves the configuration.
Example
This example shows how to configure the priority of the switch unit 2 to 10.
Switch# stack 2 priority 10
Switch#
104-4 stack preempt
This command is used to enable preemption of the master role to come into play when a unit with a better
priority is added to the switch later. Use the no form of the command to disable preemption.
stack preempt
no stack preempt
Parameters
None.
Default
By default, this option is disabled.
Command Mode
Privileged EXEC Mode.
Command Default Level
Level: 12.
Usage Guideline
When this command is disabled, the unit that assumes the master role will not change when units with a
better priority are added to the stack. If this command is enabled, then the unit that assumes the master
role will change as units with a better priority are added to the stack.
Example
This example shows how to enable preemption.
Switch# stack preempt
Switch#
104-5 show stack
This command is used to display the stacking information.
