Notice there is only
one
member line in the configuration. If there were multiple members in the stack
then there would be multiple member lines in the configuration, such as:
stack
member 1 1 ! N4064F
member 2 2 ! N4064F
member 3 3 ! N4032F
Note:
A single stack member configuration is always present on stack-capable switches even if they are
not part of an actual stack. The single switch is considered a
stack of one
.

How a Master is selected
A Master is elected or re-elected based on the following considerations, in order:
1.
The switch is currently the Master.
2.
The switch has the higher MAC address.
3.
A unit is selected as standby by the administrator, and a fail over action is manually initiated or
occurs due to a Master unit failure.
