First be sure that clustering is enabled on the switch (the default is
disabled), then set the switch as a Cluster Commander. Set a Cluster IP
Pool that does not conflict with the network IP subnet. Cluster IP addresses
are assigned to switches when they become Members and are used for
communication between Member switches and the Commander.

There can be up to 100 candidates and 36 member switches in one
cluster.
A switch can only be a member of one cluster.

clustering, take the following actions to set up this VLAN:
Create VLAN 4093 (see

Cluster Status – Enables or disables clustering on the switch.
(Default: Disabled)
Commander Status – Enables or disables the switch as a cluster
Commander. (Default: Disabled)
IP Pool – An "internal" IP address pool that is used to assign IP
addresses to Member switches in the cluster. Internal cluster IP
addresses are in the form 10.x.x.member-ID. Only the base IP address
of the pool needs to be set since Member IDs can only be between 1
and 36. Note that you cannot change the cluster IP pool when the
switch is currently in Commander mode. Commander mode must first
be disabled. (Default: 10.254.254.1)
Role – Indicates the current role of the switch in the cluster; either
Commander, Member, or Candidate. (Default: Candidate)
