Command Usage
◆ An “internal” IP address pool is used to assign IP addresses to Member switches
in the cluster. Internal cluster IP addresses are in the form 10.x.x.member-ID.
Only the base IP address of the pool needs to be set since Member IDs can only
be between 1 and 36.
◆ Set a Cluster IP Pool that does not conflict with addresses in the network IP
subnet. Cluster IP addresses are assigned to switches when they become
Members and are used for communication between Member switches and the
Commander.
◆ You cannot change the cluster IP pool when the switch is currently in
Commander mode. Commander mode must first be disabled.
Example
Console(config)#cluster ip-pool 10.2.3.4
Console(config)#
