Promote IRF Member to Master

Hi,

Just wondering what the best method is for promoting a stack member to become the master within an IRF stack. The current master has a defective Mgt interface so we would like to manage via one of the other stack members. 

Thanks in advance for any advice.

The only way to change the master is to reboot the master.

After the reboot the stanby will become master.

AttDan,

Not sure what switch you have but there is typically 1 Network Management port in an IRF configuration.  It doesn't matter which switch you plug it into.
