Cluster Configuration
The cluster function is implemented through 3Com Group Management Protocol 
version 2 (Switch Clusteringv2). Using Switch Clusteringv2, you can manage 
multiple switches through the public IP address of a master device. In a cluster, the 
master switch is called the management device, and the managed switches are 
called member devices. The member devices are not configured with public IP 
addresses. They are managed and maintained through the management device 
redirection.

Requirements
Three switches form a cluster, where:
A Switch 5500 serves as the management device.
The other two switches are member devices.
Serving as the management device, the Switch 5500 manages the two member 
devices. The configurations for the cluster are as follows:
The two member devices are connected to Ethernet 1/0/2 and Ethernet 1/0/3 
of the management device.
The management device connects to the Internet through Ethernet 1/0/1.
