You don't need to provision the switch before adding it to the stack, it will come up as switch 1 and then you can configure it as being part of the stack. FWIW, we start at switch number 1 and priority 15 and increment and decrement, respectively, from there (and do offline provisioning before adding to the stack.) -matt zagrabelny _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
