6. 80 This procedure explains how you can control the assignment of the ID numbers of the switches by powering on the units one at a time during the initial power on sequence The first switch is assigned ID number 1 the next unit is assigned ID number 2 and so on This procedure is useful when the switches are installed in the same equipment rack and you want to number them in sequence such as from top to bottom to make them easy to identify After the ID number are assigned the switches retain their assignments even when you power off or reset the stack During the initial power on sequence the first switch to be powered on becomes the master switch of the stack However if you do not change the priority values of the units the next time you reset or power cycle the stack the units use their MAC addresses to select the master switch This might result in a different switch being assigned that role However this does not affect their ID number assignments the configuration of the switches or the manner in which you manage the stack This procedure assumes the following O This is the initial power on sequence of the stack a You verified that VCStack is enabled on the switches as explained in Chapter 5 Verifying the Status of VCStack on page 63 O You connected the switches with stacking transceivers as explained in Chapter 6 Cabling the Stacking Ports on page 69 O The ID numbers are set to the default 1 O
