Configuring VSL Switch Priority
To configure the switch priority, perform this task:
Command Purpose
Step 1 Router(config)# switch virtual domain 100 Enters configuration mode for the virtual switch
domain.
Step 2 Router(config-vs-domain)# switch [1 | 2] priority
[priority_num]
Configures the priority for the chassis. The switch
with the higher priority assumes the VSS active role.
The range is 1 (lowest priority) to 255 (highest
priority); the default is 100.
Note
• The new priority value only takes effect after you
save the configuration and perform a reload of
the VSS.
• If the higher priority switch is currently in VSS
standby state, you can make it the VSS active
switch by initiating a switchover. Enter the
redundancy force-switchover command.
• The show switch virtual role command displays
the operating priority and the configured priority
for each switch in the VSS.
• The no form of the command resets the priority
value to the default priority value of 100. The
new value takes effect after you save the
configuration and perform a reload.
Step 3 Router# show switch virtual role Displays the current priority.
