	Chapter 41 Cluster Management
Table 138 Management > Cluster Management > Configuration (continued)
LABEL	DESCRIPTION
VID	This is the VLAN ID and is only applicable if the Switch is set to 802.1Q VLAN. All switches
	must be directly connected and in the same VLAN group to belong to the same cluster.
	Switches that are not in the same VLAN group are not visible in the Clustering Candidates
	list. This field is ignored if the Clustering Manager is using Port-basedVLAN.
Apply	Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
	changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to
	save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel	Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Clustering	The following fields relate to the switches that are potential cluster members.
Candidate
List	A list of suitable candidates found by auto-discovery is shown here. The switches must be
	directly connected. Directly connected switches that are set to be cluster managers will not be
	visible in the Clustering Candidate list. Switches that are not in the same management
	VLAN group will not be visible in the Clustering Candidate list.
Password	Each cluster member’s password is its web configurator password. Select a member in the
	Clustering Candidate list and then enter its web configurator password. If that switch
	administrator changes the web configurator password afterwards, then it cannot be managed
	from the Cluster Manager. Its Status is displayed as Error in the Cluster Management
	Status screen and a warning icon ( ) appears in the member summary list below.
	If multiple devices have the same password then hold [SHIFT] and click those switches to
	select them. Then enter their common web configurator password.
Add	Click Add to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
	changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to
	save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel	Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Refresh	Click Refresh to perform auto-discovery again to list potential cluster members.

The next summary table shows the information for the clustering members configured.

Index	This is the index number of a cluster member switch.
MacAddr	This is the cluster member switch’s hardware MAC address.
Name	This is the cluster member switch’s System Name.
Model	This is the cluster member switch’s model name.
Remove	Select this checkbox and then click the Remove button to remove a cluster member switch
	from the cluster.
Cancel	Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
