15.3 Cluster
A commander switch can recognize and add the candidate switch to a cluster automatically based
on NDP and NTDP. You can manually add the candidate switch to a cluster. If the candidate switch
is successfully added to the cluster, it will get a private IP address assigned by the commander
switch. You can manage and configure the member switch via the commander switch.
The Cluster function can be implemented on
Cluster Summary
