Chapter 1 Cluster Management Configuration
1-21
If the port of an access NM device (including FTP/TFTP server, NM host and log host)
does not allow the packets from the management VLAN to pass, the NM device cannot
manage the devices in a cluster through the management device. In this case, on the
management device, you need to configure the VLAN interface of the access NM
device (including FTP/TFTP server, NM host and log host) as the NM interface.
Follow these steps to configure the interaction for a cluster:

For the configured log host to take effect, you must execute the
info-center
loghost
command in system view first. For more information about the
info-center
loghost
command, refer to

z
To isolate management protocol packets of a cluster from packets outside the
cluster, you are recommended to configure to prohibit packets from the
management VLAN from passing the ports that connect the management device
with the devices outside the cluster and configure the NM interface for the
management device.
