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

are done configuring.

Cancel

Click Cancel to reset the fields.

Clustering

Candidate

The following fields relate to the switches that are potential cluster members.

List

A list of suitable candidates found by auto-discovery is shown here. The

switches must be directly connected. Directly connected switches that are set to

be cluster managers will not be visible in the Clustering Candidate list.

Switches that are not in the same management VLAN group will not be visible in

the Clustering Candidate list.

Password

Each cluster member’s password is its web configurator password. Select a

member in the Clustering Candidate list and then enter its web configurator

password. If that switch administrator changes the web configurator password

afterwards, then it cannot be managed from the Cluster Manager. Its Status is

displayed as Error in the Cluster Management Status screen and a warning

icon (

) appears in the member summary list below.

If multiple devices have the same password then hold [SHIFT] and click those

switches to select them. Then enter their common web configurator password.

Add

Click Add 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.
