  • Page 130: Stack Priority Command

    The lower the MAC address, the higher the priority. Allied Telesis recommends setting the priority numbers to match the switch ID numbers. For example, the switch with ID 1 should be assigned priority 1, switch with ID 2 should be assigned priority 2, and so on. This is not a requirement, but it can make it easier to manage the stack.

    This example changes a switch’s current ID from 1, the default, to 2: awplus(config)# stack 1 renumber 2 Note Allied Telesis does not recommend changing the ID numbers of the switches after you begin configuring their parameter settings. Otherwise, the master switch might assign parameter settings to the wrong switches the next time you power on or reset the stack.
