cluster ip-list

Function

The cluster ip-list command creates a list of cluster members' IP addresses.

The undo cluster ip-list command deletes the list of cluster members' IP addresses.

Format

cluster ip-list node node-id negotiation ip-address backup ip-address forward ip-address

undo cluster ip-list [ node node-id ]

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
node node-id

Specifies the ID of a member in the cluster.

The value is an integer ranging from 1 to 8.

negotiation ip-address

Specifies the IP address of the negotiation channel.

The value is in dotted decimal notation. It must be an IP address of a Layer 3 interface of the device and supports physical and logical interfaces. Eth-Trunk interfaces are recommended.

backup ip-address

Specifies the IP address of the backup channel.

The value is in dotted decimal notation. It must be an IP address of a Layer 3 interface of the device and supports physical and logical interfaces. Eth-Trunk interfaces are recommended.

forward ip-address

Specifies the IP address of the forwarding channel. When the traffic aggregation function is enabled, cluster members use this IP address to send and receive cross-device service traffic.

The value is in dotted decimal notation. It must be an IP address of a Layer 3 interface of the device and supports physical and logical interfaces. Eth-Trunk interfaces are recommended.

Usage Guidelines

You need to run the cluster ip-list command on all member devices of the cluster and ensure consistent IP address list configuration on each member device.

  • Negotiation channel: carries cluster status negotiation packets and certain backup configurations. If the negotiation channel fails, the system automatically uses the backup channel for data transmission.
  • Backup channel: carries service backup packets and configuration synchronization packets.
  • Forwarding channel: carries service traffic transmitted across devices.

Precautions

Negotiation, backup, and forwarding channels should use separate service interfaces of a cluster member device, but not interfaces for management.

You can delete only members whose cluster status is Down by running the undo cluster ip-list command. To delete members whose cluster status is Up, delete the member from the cluster first.

Cluster channel IP addresses can be different IP addresses of an interface. However, this may cause all channel traffic to be processed by this interface, causing both the availability and performance to be insufficient. Therefore, this configuration is not recommended.

Example

# Set the IP addresses of cluster Member 1's negotiation channel, backup channel, and forwarding channel respectively to 10.1.1.1, 10.1.2.1, and 10.1.3.1.
