Step 1 Enter the command switch IP address in the browser Location field (Netscape Communicator) or
Address field (Microsoft Internet Explorer) to access all switches in the cluster.
Step 2 Enter the command-switch password.
Step 3 Select View > Topology to display the cluster topology and to view link information
page
links, and colors, see the
Select Reports > Inventory to display an inventory of the switches in the cluster
Step 4
The summary includes information such as switch model numbers, serial numbers, software versions,
IP information, and location.
You can also display port and switch statistics from Reports > Port Statistics and Port > Port Settings
> Runtime Status.
Instead of using CMS to verify the cluster, you can use the show cluster members user EXEC command
from the command switch or use the show cluster user EXEC command from the command switch or
from a member switch.
