selects the next available member number and assigns
it to the switch that is joining the cluster.

Switch(config)# cluster member 2 mac-address
00E0.1E00.2222 password key vlan 3
Allows you to enter a password if the candidate service
module has a password.
The example shows how to add a switch as member 2
with MAC address 00E0.1E00.2222 and the password
key to a cluster. The cluster command switch adds the
candidate to the cluster through VLAN 3.
