Ethernet Crossover Cable
The Ethernet crossover cable provides the node-to-node communication data
path for the cluster.
Interconnect
An interconnect is a physical connection between cluster nodes that transmit
intracluster communication.
Simple Network Management Protocol
The simple network management protocol (SNMP) is a transmission control
protocol/IP (TCP/IP) that generally uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to
exchange messages between a management information base and a
management client residing on a network. Because SNMP does not rely on the
underlying communication protocols, it can be made available over other
protocols, such as UDP/IP.

Split-Brain
Split-brain is a condition that results in both nodes in a two-node cluster trying
to operate as the root node. The use of the CI serial cable, which is included in
this cluster kit, eliminates the possibility of split-brain.
