Figure 4-16-8 Stack Information page screenshot - Stack List
The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
• Delete
Deletes this switch from the stack configuration.
• Stack Member
The MAC address of the switch.
• Switch ID
The Switch ID (1-16) assigned to a switch. For more information, see description
of Switch IDs
• Master Capable
Indicates whether a switch is capable of being master. An unmanaged switch, for
example, will not be Master Capable.
• Master Priority
The priority that the switch has in the master election process.
The smaller the priority, the more likely the switch will become master during the
master election process.
• Switch Type
The product name of the switch.
• Start Master Election
By checking this option, the "Save" operation will also start the master election
process.
This is done by clicking "Start Master Election", followed by "Save". This causes
the first two criteria to be ignored, thereby basing master election only on master
priority and MAC address. When master election is enforced, the first two criteria
are ignored for a period of 10-15 seconds.
Master Forwarding Table
As the heading suggests, the information in the table is as seen from the master view.
For each switch in the stack, the following information is shown:
• The MAC address, switch ID, distance information, and the primary forwarding path to the switch.
• For ring topology, a backup path is also provided.
