Performing Software Configurations
Context
After you install a stack card and power on the switch, you can configure related software on the switch. Available configuration options include configuring a stack ID, and configuring a stack priority. By default, the stacking function is enabled on a switch, and you are advised to configure a stack ID and a stack priority to facilitate management. You can configure stack software on a switch that uses stack card stacking with stack ports fixed on the rear panel after the switch is powered on, without having to install stack cards on the switch.
Procedure
- Run the system-view command to enter the system view.
- (Optional) Run the stack slot slot-id renumber new-slot-id command to configure a stack ID for
the switch.
By default, the stack ID of a switch is 0.
The configuration takes effect after the switch is restarted.
- (Optional) Run the stack slot slot-id priority priority command to configure a stack priority
for the switch.
By default, the stack priority of a member switch is 100.
- (Optional) Run the display stack configuration [ slot slot-id ] command to check the stack configuration on a member switch.
