tpSwitchPriority
Module: TPLINK-STACK-MIB
OID (symbolic): TPLINK-STACK-MIB::tpSwitchPriority
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.34.1.2.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: A number containing the priority of a switch. The switch with the highest priority will become the master.
What is tpSwitchPriority?
This read-write object sets a switch's priority value used in master election, where the switch with the highest priority becomes the stack master. An admin uses this to deliberately control which physical unit becomes master rather than leaving the outcome to default tie-breaking rules. For example, an admin wanting a specific top-of-rack switch to always be master would set its tpSwitchPriority to 15, the highest possible value, while leaving other members lower.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.34.1.2.1.1.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TPLINK-STACK-MIB::tpSwitchPriority
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.34.1.2.1.1.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TPLINK-STACK-MIB::tpSwitchPriority.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.6.34.1.2.1.1.5.1 i <value>
