10. On the Cluster Parameters tab, configure cluster operations using these
parameters:
• Primary IP Address: This is the address for the cluster as a whole. This is the
address that the clients will use to access the cluster.
• Subnet Mask: This is the subnet mask of the network to which the above
address belongs.
• Multicast: Leave this unchecked, unless your virtual machine was configured
with a single network adapter.
Note that all members of the cluster must use the same setting for this option.
• Refer to Network Load Balancing Help for the remaining options.
