Ping 192.168.0.172

and

Ping 10.1.1.1

from Node 1.

Then you would type:

Ping 192.168.0.172

and

10.1.1.1

from Node 2.

To confirm name resolution, ping each node from a client using the
node’s machine name instead of its IP number.

Verifying Domain Membership

All nodes in the cluster have to be members of the same domain and
capable of accessing a domain controller and a DNS Server. You can
configure them as either member servers or domain controllers. If you
plan to configure one node as a domain controller, you should configure
all other nodes as domain controllers in the same domain as well.

Setting Up a Cluster User Account

The Cluster Service requires a domain user account that the Cluster
Service can run under. You must create the user account before installing
the Cluster Service. The reason for this is that setup requires a user
name and password. This user account should not belong to a user on
the domain. Follow these steps to set up a cluster user account.
