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.
