LABEL DESCRIPTION
Clustering Manager
Active Select Active to have this Switch become the cluster manager switch. A cluster
can only have one manager. Other (directly connected) switches that are set to
be cluster managers will not be visible in the
Clustering Candidates list. If a
switch that was previously a cluster member is later set to become a cluster
manager, then its
Status is displayed as Error in the Cluster Management
Status screen and a warning icon ( ) appears in the member summary list
below.
Name Type a name to identify the Clustering Manager. You may use up to 32
printable characters (spaces are allowed).
VID This is the VLAN ID and is only applicable if the Switch is set to 802.1Q VLAN.
All switches must be directly connected and in the same VLAN group to belong
to the same cluster. Switches that are not in the same VLAN group are not
visible in the
Clustering Candidates list. This field is ignored if the Clustering
Manager is using Port-based VLAN.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch
loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the
top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you
are done configuring.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this part of the screen afresh.
