Cluster client configuration mode

Cluster client PW configuration mode (SLX 9540 and SLX 9640 devices only)

Usage Guidelines

Before deploying a cluster, the cluster client must be configured.

Before deploying a cluster client, the client interface and ESI settings must be configured under the client configuration.

On the SLX 9540 and SLX 9640 devices:

Before deploying a cluster PW client, the ESI value must be configured under the PW client configuration.
An LSP is automatically created when you deploy a cluster. When you undeploy a cluster, the LSP is removed.

The client will not operate in MCT mode unless the remote client is also deployed.

The no form of the command undeploys the cluster or cluster client.

When the client is undeployed, all MAC addresses are removed locally and a withdraw message is sent to the MCT peer to remove all associated client MAC addresses.

Examples

The following example shows the deployment of a cluster.

device(config)# cluster MCT1 1
device(config-cluster-1)# deploy

The following example shows the deployment of a cluster client.

device(config)# cluster MCT1 1
device(config-cluster-1)# client MCT1-client 200
device(config-cluster-client-200)# deploy

On the SLX 9540 and SLX 9640 devices, the following example shows the deployment of a PW cluster client.

device(config)# cluster MCT1 1
device(config-cluster-1)# client-pw
device(config-cluster-client-pw)# deploy
