Click the New button and select Cluster Member. The New–Cluster Member dialog
4.
box appears.
Enter the cluster member name, select Device Is Reachable and click Next.
5.
Specify the device connection settings:
6.
IP Address—IP address of the device.
Admin User Name—Administrator user name created for the device.
Password—Administrator password created for the device.
NOTE: The ssh port number for cluster member is 22 by default and the port number
cannot be modified.
Click Next, The device is detected and the device details are displayed.
7.
Enter a new name for the device in Device Name to change the host name of the
8.
device. An error message is displayed if the device name is not unique.
Click Finish to add the cluster member to the NSM GUI. The cluster member is added
9.
as a child of the device cluster in the Devices workspace.
You can use NSM to manage clusters made up of J Series or SRX Series devices. You
cannot create clusters of EX Series, M Series, or MX Series devices.
J Series and SRX Series clusters have two members; a primary member and a secondary
member. You import a configuration for the entire cluster from the primary member. You
need to import the configuration only once because both members share the same
configuration file. Similarly, to update the configuration on the cluster, you need to push
the configuration to only the primary member.
To configure local data for one cluster only, you must use a configuration group dedicated
to that purpose. See "Configuring Devices" on page 185 for details.
To add a cluster of J Series or SRX Series devices to NSM, you use the Add Cluster wizard
as for any other cluster type, and provide a cluster name, a color for the icon in NSM,
supply JUNOS as the name of the operating system, J Series as the JUNOS OS Type, a
platform name, and managed OS version.
You add cluster members one at a time, in a similar manner to adding standalone devices.
You can add and import devices with dynamic IP addresses, or you can model devices
that have not yet been configured. NSM does not support importing cluster members
with static IP addresses.
When adding a modeled device, you are asked to provide a member ID. One member of
the cluster should be member 0 and the other member 1. These member IDs allow
configuration groups to distinguish between the two cluster members, thereby providing
local configuration data in a configuration group dedicated to member 0, and local
configuration data in another configuration group dedicated to member 1.
