Depending on how you power on or reboot the stack in the future,

the switches might select a different master. That does not change
their ID numbers, their configurations, or the manner in which you
manage the stack.
3. Do one of the following:
To set the switch priority values, continue with the next step.

Setting priority numbers is optional. Assigning switches unique
priority numbers can protect the configuration of the stack when
adding new switches, as well as establish the order in which
member switches become the master switch, if necessary. For
background information, refer to the "STACK PRIORITY
Command" on page 167.
Otherwise, go to Chapter 14, "Cabling the Networking Ports" on

page 185, to complete the installation.
4. Enter the ENABLE and CONFIGURE TERMINAL commands to move
to the Privileged Exec mode: Refer to Figure 76.

5. Enter the STACK PRIORITY command to set the priority numbers.
The command has this format:
stack ID_number priority priority
You can change the priority number of only one switch at a time. The
parameters are as follows:
The ID_NUMBER parameter is the ID number of the switch whose

priority value you are setting. The range is 1 to 8. Switches display
their ID numbers on the ID LEDs on the front panels.
The PRIORITY parameter is the new priority value for the switch.

The range is 0 to 255. The default is 128. The lower the number,
the higher the priority.
The stack will be easier to manage if the priority number of a switch is
the same as its switch ID. Here are two examples. To assign the
priority value 1 to the switch with the ID number 1, you enter:
awplus(config)# stack 1 priority 1
