Manually Configure IPSO Cluster
.
Configure the cluster as explained in the following sections.
Selecting the Cluster Mode
Select the cluster mode that is appropriate for your scenario:
!
If the routers and switches on either side of the cluster support multicast
MAC addresses, you can use multicast mode. This mode usually offers
better throughput because it makes better use of the bandwidth of the
production networks.
!
If the routers or switches adjacent to the cluster do not support multicast
MAC addresses, you must use forwarding mode.
Configuring an Interface
To activate the cluster protocol, you must select at least two Ethernet
interfaces. One of the two must be an internal or external interface (not a
primary or secondary cluster interface). The other interface must be the
primary interface.
Note
Nokia recommends that you select another interface as a secondary
cluster protocol interface. Remember that the primary and secondary
cluster protocol networks should not carry any production traffic.
The Interfaces Configuration table lists all the Ethernet interfaces on the
system that are configured with IP addresses. The table displays the status and
IP address of each interface. To add Ethernet interfaces to this list or to
activate inactive interfaces, go to the Interface Configuration page.
To include an interface in the cluster:
1.
In the Select column, select
Y
ES
.
2.
Enter the cluster IP address.
