5.10 Switch Cluster Commands
Switch Clustering is a method of grouping switches together to enable centralized management through a single unit. Switches
that support clustering can be grouped together regardless of physical location or switch type, as long as they are connected to
the same local network.
Command Function Mode
cluster Configures clustering on the switch GC
cluster commander Configures the switch as a cluster Commander GC
cluster ip-pool Sets the cluster IP address pool for Members GC
cluster member Sets Candidate switches as cluster members GC
rcommand Provides configuration access to Member switches GC
show cluster Displays the switch clustering status PE
show cluster members Displays current cluster Members PE
show cluster candidates Displays current cluster Candidates in the network PE

Using Switch Clustering
A switch cluster has a primary unit called the “Commander” which is used to manage all other “Member” switches in the cluster.
The management station uses both Telnet and the web interface to communicate directly with the Commander through its IP
address, while the Commander manages Member switches using the cluster’s “internal” IP addresses.
Once a switch has been configured to be a cluster Commander, it automatically discovers other cluster-enabled switches in the
network. These “Candidate” switches only become cluster Members when manually selected by the administrator through the
