VID This is the VLAN ID and is only applicable if the Switch is set to 802.1Q VLAN. All switches must
be directly connected and in the same VLAN group to belong to the same cluster. Switches
that are not in the same VLAN group are not visible in the Cluste ring Ca ndida te s list. This field
is ignored if the Cluste ring Ma na g e r is using Port- b a se d VLAN.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these

Clustering
Candidate
The following fields relate to the switches that are potential cluster members.
List A list of suitable candidates found by auto-discovery is shown here. The switches must be
directly connected. Directly connected switches that are set to be cluster managers will not
be visible in the Cluste ring Ca ndida te list. Switches that are not in the same management
VLAN group will not be visible in the Cluste ring C a ndida te list.
Password Each cluster member’s password is its Web Configurator password. Select a member in the
Cluste ring C a ndid a te list and then enter its Web Configurator password. If that switch
administrator changes the Web Configurator password afterwards, then it cannot be
managed from the Cluste r Ma na g e r. Its Sta tus is displayed as Erro r in the Cluste r

If multiple devices have the same password then hold [SHIFT] and click those switches to
select them. Then enter their common Web Configurator password.
