config stacking mode [disable | enable] {<string>}
show stacking mode
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config box_priority
Purpose Used to configure box priority, which determines which box becomes the
priority master. Lower numbers denote a higher priority.
Syntax
config box_priority {current_box_id <value 1-12> priority <value 1-63>}
Description This command configures box (switch) priority.
Parameters current_box_id <value 1-12> – Identifies the Switch being configured. Range
is 1-12.
priority <value 1-63> – Assigns a priority value to the box, with lower
numbers having higher priority. The possible priority range is 1-63. This field
is important when the stacking mode is automatically configured. Users who
wish a certain switch become the primary master of the switch stack should
configure their choice for the priority master switch to have the highest
priority (and in essence the lowest number).
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
Usage example:
To configure box priority:
DGS-3600:4#config box_priority current_box_id 1 priority 1
Command: config box_priority current_box_id 1 priority 1
Success.
DGS-3600:4#
config box_id
Purpose Used to configure box ID. Users can use this command to reassign box IDs.

| 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12]}
Description This command will assign box IDs to switches in a stack.
Parameters current_box_id – Identifies the Switch being configured. Range is 1-12.
new_box_id – The new ID being assigned to the Switch (box). Range is 1-12.
