# Virtual Chassis Support
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The plugin automatically detects Virtual Chassis configurations and displays all VC interfaces on the LibreNMS Sync page of the designated sync device.
|
||||
|
||||
**LibreNMS Sync Device Selection Priority:**
|
||||
1. Member with `librenms_id` custom field (highest priority)
|
||||
2. Master device with primary IP
|
||||
3. Any member with primary IP
|
||||
4. Member with lowest VC position
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** LibreNMS treats a Virtual Chassis as a single logical device. Only one member (the sync device) should have the `librenms_id` custom field set.
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
### Member Selection
|
||||
|
||||
When viewing a device that is part of a virtual chassis, the plugin will:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Detects if the device is part of a virtual chassis and displays 'Virtual Chassis Member' column.
|
||||
2. Automatically select the VC member by matching the device VC position to the first number in the interface name.
|
||||
3. Allows selection of specific members if the auto select is not correct.
|
||||
|
||||
> Selecting a new member will trigger a new interface details comparison against the newly selected NetBox VC member.
|
||||
|
||||
Interfaces data is then synced to the selected VC member in Netbox.
