Configuration Example
In this example, a packet is an L3 IP switched packet and Egress port can also be a linkagg port.
1
Create a server cluster that will become the HA VLAN by using the command
and
configure the mode. For example:
-> server-cluster 3 mode L3
2
Create a default VLAN for the HA VLAN ports with the
command as shown below:
-> vlan 12
3
Assign member ports to the new default VLAN with the
command as shown
below:
-> vlan 12 members port 1/3 untagged
-> vlan 12 members port 1/4 untagged
-> vlan 12 members port 1/5 untagged
4
Assign mac-address for the new server cluster by using the command
. For
example:
-> server-cluster 3 ip 10.135.33.12 mac-address static 01:00:11:22:33:44
5
If you want to assign a dynamic mac-address for the server cluster, enter the command as follows:
-> server-cluster 3 ip 10.135.33.12 mac-address dynamic
6
Enable the admin state of the IP multicast by using the
ip multicast admin-state enable
command. IP
multicast admin state should be enabled for the IGMP reports to be processed., else the cluster will be
operationally down.
-> ip multicast admin-state enable
-> server-cluster 3 igmp-mode enable
-> server-cluster 3 ip-multicast 225.0.0.23
When IGMP mode is enabled for the server cluster, all static ports will be reset in igmp mode.
Note. Optional
. You can display the configuration of high availability VLANs with the
command. For example:
-> show server-cluster 3
