Configuring the Management Device 915
Automatically establishing a cluster
In addition to establishing a cluster manually, you are also provided with the
means to establish a cluster automatically. With only a few commands (as shown
in the table below) on the management device, you can let the system
automatically build a cluster.
During the process, you will first be asked to enter a name for the cluster you want
to establish, the system then lists all the candidate devices within your predefined
hop counts and starts to automatically add them to the cluster.
You can use <Ctrl+C> anytime during the adding process to exit cluster
auto-building. However, this will only stop adding new devices into the cluster,
and devices already added in the cluster are not removed.
Follow these steps to automatically establish a cluster:
