Failover Roles
If the stack master fails (for example, is powered off), it is removed from the stack topology.
The standby unit detects the loss of peering communication and takes ownership of the stack management,
switching from the standby role to the master role. The distributed forwarding tables are retained during the
failover, as is the stack MAC address. The lack of a standby unit triggers an election within the remaining units
for a standby role.
After the former master switch recovers, despite having a higher priority or MAC address, it does not recover
its master role but instead takes the next available role.
To view failover details, use the
show redundancy
command.
MAC Addressing on Stacks
The stack has three MAC addresses: the chassis MAC, interface MAC, and null interface MAC.
All interfaces in the stack use the interface MAC address of the management unit, and the chassis MAC for the
stack is the master’s chassis MAC. The stack continues to use the master’s chassis MAC address even after a
failover. The MAC address is not refreshed until the stack is reloaded and a different unit becomes the stack
master.
NOTE: If the removed management unit is brought up as a standalone unit or as part of a different stack,
there is a possibility of MAC address collisions.
A standalone is added to a stack. The standalone and the master unit have the same priority, but the
standalone has a lower MAC address, so the standalone reboots. In the second example, a standalone is
added to a stack. The standalone has a higher priority than the stack, so the stack (excluding the new unit)
reloads.
