[no] cluster
Default Setting
Enabled
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
To create a switch cluster, first be sure that clustering is enabled on the switch (the default is enabled), then set the switch
as a Cluster Commander. Set a Cluster IP Pool that does not conflict with any other IP subnets in the network. Cluster IP
addresses are assigned to switches when they become Members and are used for communication between Member
switches and the Commander.
Cluster switches are limited to the same Ethernet broadcast domain.
There can be up to 100 candidates and 36 member switches in one cluster.
A switch can only be a Member of one cluster.
Configured switch clusters are maintained across power resets and network changes.
Example
Console(config)#cluster
Console(config)#
cluster commander
This command enables the switch as a cluster Commander. Use the no form to disable the switch as a cluster Commander.
Syntax
[no] cluster commander
Default Setting
Disabled
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
Once a switch has been configured to be a cluster Commander, it automatically discovers other cluster-enabled switches
in the network. These "Candidate" switches only become cluster Members when manually selected by the administrator
through the management station.
Cluster Member switches can be managed through using a Telnet connection to the Commander. From the Commander
CLI prompt, use the rcommand id command to connect to the Member switch.
