Configuring Port Clustering

Assigning Master Clustering Mode

To assign a Digi CM unit as the master cluster device, do the following:

1. Access the Digi CM unit through the web interface. This Digi CM unit needs

to be the unit you want as the Master.

2. Under the Clustering heading, choose Configuration.

3. Choose Master from the drop down menu.

Subsequent units will be configured in Slave mode by default.

4. Choose Save & apply.

Configure Slaves to Join a Cluster

Digi CM units can be configured as basic slaves without any additional

configuration. Two additional settings, however, enhance the clustering

capability.

Authentication mode -Local authentication is the slave independently

authenticating all port access.

Master authentication is the master performs port authentication. Users do

NOT need to be defined on the slave unit. Password verification will be

done by the master unit.

Update Master on Changes -Automatically updates port name changes, port

settings, and user permission settings to the master unit. Generally, Update

Master on changes should be yes.
