Setting the Node ID and Cluster ID

After connecting the two devices together, you configure a cluster ID and a node ID. A cluster ID identifies the cluster that the two nodes belong to. A node ID identifies a unique node within a cluster.

Before You Begin

Read:

The system uses node IDs and cluster IDs to apply the correct configuration for each node when you use the apply-group command described in Configuring Chassis Cluster Information . The node ID and cluster ID statements are written to the EPROM, and when the system is rebooted, they take effect.

You can deploy up to 15 clusters in a Layer 2 domain. Each cluster is defined by a cluster-id value within the range of 1 through 15. A device can belong to only one cluster at any given time. Nodes in a cluster are numbered 0 and 1.
