Chapter 1 Clustering Switches
Understanding Switch Clusters
Cluster Command Switch Characteristics
A cluster command switch must meet these requirements:
• It is running a supported software release.
• It has an IP address.
• It has Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) Version 2 enabled (the default).
• It is not a command or cluster member switch of another cluster.
• It is connected to the standby cluster command switches through the management VLAN and to the
cluster member switches through a common VLAN.
Standby Cluster Command Switch Characteristics
A standby cluster command switch must meet these requirements:
• It is running a supported software release.
• It has an IP address.
• It has CDP Version 2 enabled.
• It is connected to the command switch and to other standby command switches through its
management VLAN.
• It is connected to all other cluster member switches (except the cluster command and standby
command switches) through a common VLAN.
• It is redundantly connected to the cluster so that connectivity to cluster member switches is
maintained.
• It is not a command or member switch of another cluster.
