610 CHAPTER 32: CLUSTERING
Clustering Configuration
Example
Network requirements
Three switches form a cluster, in which:
Switch 5500 acts as the management device.
Other two switches act as member devices.
As the management device, Switch 5500 manages the member devices and is
configured as follows:
It attaches two member devices through ports Ethernet1/0/2 and Ethernet1/0/3
respectively.
It connects with the external network through port Ethernet1/0/1.
Ethernet1/0/1 belongs to VLAN2, whose interface IP address is 163.172.55.1.
The same FTP server and TFTP server is used through the cluster.
The IP address of the FTP server and TFTP server is 63.172.55.1.
The IP address of the SNMP site and logging host is 69.172.55.4.
