PLANET WGSW-50040 - Manual (Page 79)

Usage Guide:
After executing this command on a commander switch, the value of the parameter will be distributed
to all member switches via the TCP connections between the commander and members.
After executing it on a non commander switch, the configuration value will be saved but not used
until the switch becomes a commander. Before that, its loss-count value is the one distributed by its
commander.
commander calculates the loss-count after sending each DP message by adding 1 to the loss-count
of each switch and clearing that of a switch after receiving a DR message from the latter. When a
loss-count reaches the configured value (3 by default) without receiving any DR message, the
commander will delete the switch from its candidate chain list.
If the time that a member fails to receive DP messages from the commander reaches loss-count, it
will change its status to candidate.
The no operation of this command will restore the tolerable max number of lost keepalive messages
in the cluster back to its default value: 3.
Example:
Set the tolerable max number of lost keepalive messages in the cluster to 5.
Switch(config)#cluster keepalive loss-count 5
2.7 cluster member
Command:
cluster member {nodes-sn | mac-address [id ]}
no cluster member {id | mac-address }
Function:
On a commander switch, manually add candidate switches into the cluster created by it.
Parameters:
nodes-sn：all cluster member switches as recorded in a chain list, each with a node sn which can be
viewed by “show cluster candidates” command. One or more candidates can be added as member
at one time. The valid range of candidate-sn-list is 1~256.
mac-address：the CPU Mac of candidate switches
member-id：A member id can be specified to a candidate as it becomes a member, ranging from 1 to
128, increasing from 1 by default.
nodes-sn is the automatically generated sn, which may change after the candidate becomes a
member. Members added this way will be actually treated as those added in mac-addr mode with all
config files in mac-addr mode.
If more than one switch is added as member simultaneously, no member-id is allowed; neither when
