DESCRIPTION

 

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

 

Candidate

members.

 

 

 

 

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.

 

 

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
