36.4.1 Cluster Member Switch Management
Go to the
Clustering Management Status
screen of the cluster manager switch
and then select an
Index
hyperlink from the list of members to go to that cluster member switch's Web Configurator home page.
This cluster member Web Configurator home page and the home page that you would see if you
accessed it directly are different.
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.
