LUSTERING
Switch Clustering is a method of grouping switches together to enable
centralized management through a single unit. Switches that support
clustering can be grouped together regardless of physical location or switch
type, as long as they are connected to the same local network.
Using Switch Clustering
◆
A switch cluster has a primary unit called the “Commander” which is
used to manage all other “Member” switches in the cluster. The
management station can use either Telnet or the web interface to
communicate directly with the Commander through its IP address, and
then use the Commander to manage the Member switches through the
cluster’s “internal” IP addresses.
◆
Clustered switches must be in the same Ethernet broadcast domain. In
other words, clustering only functions for switches which can pass
information between the Commander and potential Candidates or
active Members through VLAN 4093.
◆
Once a switch has been configured to be a cluster Commander, it
automatically discovers other cluster-enabled switches in the network.
These “Candidate” switches only become cluster Members when
manually selected by the administrator through the management
station.
N
OTE
:
Cluster Member switches can be managed either through a Telnet
connection to the Commander, or through a web management connection
to the Commander. When using a console connection, from the
Commander CLI prompt, use the
rcommand
to connect to the Member
switch.
