3.3 Configuring Basic HGMP Functions
This section describes how to configure basic HGMP functions to create or manage a cluster.
3.3.1 Establishing the Configuration Task
Before configuring basic HGMP functions, familiarize yourself with the applicable
environment, complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the required data. This can help
you complete the configuration task quickly and accurately.
Applicable Environment
When you need to create or manage a cluster, you can configure the cluster with basic HGMP
functions.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring basic HGMP functions, complete the following tasks:
l Ensuring that the device is correctly powered on and operates normally
l Configuring basic attributes of interfaces on the device
Data Preparation
To configure basic HGMP functions, you need the following data.
No.
Data
1 Range of private IP addresses used in the cluster
2 Cluster name
3 Medium access control (MAC) address of the member switch
4 (Optional) Aging time of NDP packets and interval for sending NDP packets
5 (Optional) Range of topology collection, hop delay and interface delay in forwarding
NTDP topology request packets, interval for topology collection
6 (Optional) ID of the management VLAN, aging time of NDP packets, interval for
sending handshake packets, address of the SNMP host, and IP addresses of the FTP
