Verifying a Switch Cluster
When you finish adding cluster members, follow these steps to verify the cluster:
Step1 Enter the command switch IP address in the browser Location field (NetscapeCommunicator) or
Address field (Microsoft Internet Explorer) to access all switches in the cluster.
Step2 Enter the command-switch password.
Step3 Select View > Topology to display the cluster topology and to view link information. For complete
information about the Topology view, including descriptions of the icons, links, and colors, see the
“Topology View” section on page4-14.
Step4 Select Reports > Inventory to display an inventory of the switches in the cluster (Figure7-13).
The summary includes information such as switch model numbers, serial nu mbers, soft ware v ersions, IP
information, and location.
You can also display port and switch statistics from Reports > Port Statistics and Port > Port Settings
> Runtime Status.
Instead of using CMS to verify the cluster, you can use the sho w cluster members user EXEC command
from the command switch or use the show cluster user EXEC command from the co mm an d sw it ch o r
from a member switch.
