Auto-Build - 3Com 5500-EI PWR Reference Manual

View
Cluster view
Parameters
mac-address: MAC address of the management device to be specified.
name: Name of an existing cluster, a string of up to 8 characters. Note that the name of a cluster can
only contain alphanumeric characters, minus signs (-), and underscores (_).
Description
Use the administrator-address command to specify the management device MAC address and the
cluster name on a device to add the device to the cluster.
Use the undo administrator-address command to remove the management device MAC address
from the MAC address list of a member device, that is, remove the member device from the cluster.
Normally, this command is used for debugging and restoring purpose.
By default, a switch is not a member of any cluster.
A cluster has one and only one management device. Setting the management device MAC address on
a device can add the device to the cluster and enable the device to identify the management device
even if it restarts.
You can add a device to a cluster using the administrator-address command no matter whether the
super password of the device is consistent with that of the management device.
Normally it is recommended to use the delete-member command on the management device to
remove a member device from the cluster.
Examples
# Remove the current member device from the cluster.
<aaa_1.Sysname> system-view
System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z
[aaa_1.Sysname] cluster
[aaa_1.Sysname-cluster] undo administrator-address
