Basic Cluster Configuration Example
Network requirements
Three switches compose a cluster, where:
z
A Switch 5500-EI series switch serves as the management device.
z
The rest are member devices.
Serving as the management device, the Switch 5500-EI switch manages the two member devices. The
configuration for the cluster is as follows:
z
The two member devices connect to the management device through Ethernet 1/0/2 and Ethernet
1/0/3.
z
The management device connects to the Internet through Ethernet 1/0/1.
z
Ethernet 1/0/1 belongs to VLAN 2, whose interface IP address is 163.172.55.1.
z
All the devices in the cluster share the same FTP server and TFTP server.
z
The FTP server and TFTP server use the same IP address: 63.172.55.1.
z
The NMS and logging host use the same IP address: 69.172.55.4.
