You can use the
display stack configuration
command to check the default stack ID and stack
priority when the stack member starts this time and next time.

3.6 Configuration Examples
This section provides an example for configuring a stack in a ring topology.
3.6.1 Example for Configuring a Stack in a Ring Topology
Networking Requirements
, Switch A, Switch B, Switch C, and Switch D form a stack in a ring
topology. The stack system is automatically created. Switch A functions as the master switch,
whereas Switch B functions as a standby switch. After the active/standby switchover, the MAC
address of the stack system is immediately switched. To avoid updating MAC addresses of the
stack system frequently and wasting system resources, set the MAC address switchover time of
the stack system to 1 minute after the active/standby switchover.
