Remove a Member Switch and Make Its Member ID Available for Reassignment to a Different
Switch
When you remove a member switch from the Virtual Chassis configuration, the master
keeps its member ID on reserve. To make that member switch’s member ID available for
reassignment, issue the request virtual-chassis recycle command from the Virtual Chassis
master.
NOTE: When you add or delete members in a Virtual Chassis configuration, internal
routing changes might cause temporary traffic loss for a few seconds.
