stack priority
Use this command to change a specific stack member's master-election priority.
Syntax
stack <stack-ID> priority <0-255>
no stack <stack-ID> priority
Mode
Global Configuration
Usage
This command is used to change the value of a specific stack member's master-election
priority. If the specified stack-ID is not used by any current stack member, the
command will be rejected.
The election criteria selects the stack member with the lowest priority value to become
the stack master. Where two stack members both have the same lowest priority value,
then the stack member with the lowest MAC address will be elected as master.
Example
To change the priority of stack member 2 to be 3, use the commands:

priority
The stack member’s election priority value.
<0-255>
The stack member’s new priority value. The lowest value is assigned
the highest priority. The default is 128.
Note
Assigning a new priority value will not immediately change the current stack
master. In order to force a master re-election after the new priority value is
assigned, use reboot stack-member
master, a new stack master will then be elected based on the new priority
values.
