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.

These parameters are displayed:
After the Commander and Members have been configured, any switch
in the cluster can be managed from the web agent by choosing the
desired Member ID from the Cluster drop down menu.

Cluster Status – Enables or disables clustering on the switch.
(Default: Enabled)
Commander Status – Enables or disables the switch as a cluster
Commander. (Default: Disabled)
Role – Indicates the current role of the switch in the cluster; either
Commander, Member, or Candidate. (Default: Candidate)
Cluster 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)
Number of Members – The current number of Member switches in the
cluster.
Number of Candidates – The current number of Candidate switches
discovered in the network that are available to become Members.
