Creating a Redundancy Cluster with a Configured

Mobility Router and a New Mobility Router

If you have a Mobility Router that is already configured with users with mobile devices who are

currently provisioned, you can preserve the configuration of that Mobility Router when creating a

redundancy cluster. To preserve the existing configuration of the Mobility Router, you need to do the

following:

 Disable all existing users on the Mobility Router.

 Change the eth0 IP address and hostname for the Mobility Router.

 Specify the existing eth0 IP address of the Mobility Router as the virtual IP address of the

redundancy cluster.

 Specify the hostname of the Mobility Router as the redundancy cluster name.

 Use the certificate for the Mobility Router as the virtual certificate for the redundancy cluster.

If you do not follow the previous steps when creating the redundancy cluster, the existing configuration

of the Mobility Router is lost, and you will need to recreate configuration of the Mobility Router. Any

provisioned users no longer have access to ShoreTel Mobility Client features until you recreated the

configuration on the Mobility Router.

Reconfiguring the Previously Configured Mobility Router

1. Perform the following tasks to reconfigure the previously configured Mobility Router in preparation

of creating a redundancy cluster:

2. Disable all existing users on the Mobility Router. For more information, see “Disabling All Existing

Users” on page 234.

3. Change the eth0 IP address and hostname for the Mobility Router. For more information, see

“Changing the Hostname and IP Address of the Mobility Router” on page 234.

4. Copy the Mobility Router certificate, and import it as the Mobility Router virtual certificate. For more

information, see “Importing the Existing Mobility Router Certificate as the Virtual Certificate” on

page 235.

5. Configure redundancy cluster settings and enable the cluster:

 Specify the original hostname of the Mobility Router as the redundancy cluster name.

 Specify the original Mobility Router IP address as the virtual IP address.

 When prompted, restart the Mobility Router.

For more information, see “Configuring Redundancy Cluster Settings” on page 231.

6. Enable all the existing users. For more information, see “Enabling Existing Users” on page 235.
