Managing Redundancy Clusters Configuring the Second Mobility Router

ShoreTel Mobility Router Administration Guide 231

Configuring Redundancy Cluster Settings

To configure redundancy cluster settings:

1. Login to the first Mobility Router.

2. Select Configuration > Clustering > Redundancy. The Redundancy page displays.

3. Select the Enabled check box to enable redundancy on this Mobility Router.

4. In the Name field, type the name of the redundancy cluster. The name can be up to 50 characters

long and cannot contain any special characters except for spaces, hyphens (-), and underscores

(_).

Make sure that the name for the redundancy cluster is unique for each cluster. If you already have

a redundancy cluster and are creating another cluster, the name of the new cluster must be

different from the existing cluster.

5. In the Virtual IP Address field for ETH0 and ETH1, type the shared IP address, and select the

subnet mask from the list.

This IP address is the management address you access when you need to configure the

redundancy cluster. This is the IP address that mobile devices and the IP-PBX communicate with,

rather than one of the individual physical IP addresses.

6. To save your changes, click Apply.

7. The Services Restart message displays. If selected, you are prompted with another message

depending on Mobility Router joining or leaving the cluster. If joining, “Wait for Mobility Router to

join the cluster” displays. If leaving the cluster, “Wait for mobility router to leave the cluster”

displays. ShoreTel Mobility Router services automatically restart.

You can verify the state of the redundancy cluster by selecting Monitor > Clustering > Redundancy.

The first Mobility Router is now the active node in the cluster.

Now that you have configured the first Mobility Router to create the redundancy cluster, you add the

second Mobility Router to the cluster, as described in “Configuring the Second Mobility Router” on

page 236.

Configuring the Second Mobility Router

After creating the redundancy cluster with the first Mobility Router, perform the following tasks on the

second Mobility Router:

1. Initially configure the Mobility Router and establish it in your network using the Initial Configuration

Wizard. For more information, see “Initially Configuring and Establishing Network Connectivity” on

page 232.

2. Configure redundancy cluster settings and enable the cluster. For more information, see

“Configuring Redundancy Cluster Settings” on page 231.

3. When prompted, restart the Mobility Router services.
