LABEL DESCRIPTION
Clustering Manager
Active Select Active to have this switch become the cluster manager switch. A cluster
can only have one manager. Other (directly connected) switches that are set to
be cluster managers will not be visible in the Clustering Candidates list. If a
switch that was previously a cluster member is later set to become a cluster
manager, then its Status is displayed as Error in the Cluster Management
Status screen and a warning icon ( ) appears in the member summary list
below.
Name Type a name to identify the Clustering Manager. You may use up to 20
printable characters (no spaces are allowed).

to the same cluster. Switches that are not in the same VLAN group are not
visible in the Clustering Candidates list. This field is ignored if the Clustering
Manager is using Port-based VLAN.
