Operation Manual – Stack-ClusterH3C S3100-52P Ethernet Switch Chapter 2 Cluster2-11Task RemarksConfiguring the Enhanced Cluster Features Optional2.2.1 Configuring the Management DeviceI. Management device configuration task listComplete the following tasks to configure management device:Task RemarksEnabling NDP globally and on specific ports RequiredConfiguring NDP-related parameters OptionalEnabling NTDP globally and on a specific port RequiredConfiguring NTDP-related parameters OptionalEnabling the cluster function RequiredConfiguring cluster parameters RequiredConfiguring inside-outside interaction for a cluster OptionalNote:To reduce the risk of being attacked by malicious users against opened socket andenhance switch security, the S3100-52P Ethernet switch provide the followingfunctions, so that a cluster socket is opened only when it is needed:z Opening UDP port 40000 (used for cluster) only when the cluster function isimplemented,z Closing UDP port 40000 at the same time when the cluster function is closed.On the management device, the preceding functions are implemented as follows:z When you create a cluster by using the build or auto-build command, UDP port40000 is opened at the same time.z When you remove a cluster by using the undo build or undo cluster enablecommand, UDP port 40000 is closed at the same time.
