Onboarding a Dual-Node Cluster for High
Availability
This task describes creating a two-node,
high-availability RUCKUS Edge cluster in RUCKUS One.
Prior to performing this procedure, you must have already
configured the Venue with which this cluster will be associated. You must also have two
RUCKUS Edge devices installed and ready for onboarding to RUCKUS One.
Create a dual-node Edge cluster as follows:
Log in to the RUCKUS One web
user interface with your credentials.
On the RUCKUS One navigation
bar, click RUCKUS
Edge.
This displays the
RUCKUS Edge page.
In the RUCKUS
Edge page, click Add and select
Cluster. This displays the Add Cluster
page.
In the Add
Cluster page, enter the following details:
Venue: Click the
drop-down arrow to select a site for the new cluster.
Cluster Name:
Enter a meaningful name for the cluster profile.
Description:
Enter a purposeful statement for the device.
In the RUCKUS Edges
section, define two Edge devices as two nodes are required to establish a
complete cluster. Enter the name and serial number of the first Edge device in
the available fields. Add a second Edge device in the same manner by clicking
the Add another RUCKUS
Edge option.
RUCKUS Edge Name: Enter a
meaningful name for the nodes.
Serial Number: Enter the
serial number of the Edge device. You can obtain the serial number by
logging in to the Edge CLI or by looking at the label on the physical
Edge device.
Model: After the serial
number is entered, the model name is displayed automatically.
To delete a RUCKUS Edge device,
click on the Delete icon
adjacent to the RUCKUS Edge entry.
Note: The one-time-password (OTP)
is automatically sent to your email address or through the SMS for
verification when you add a virtual Edge node (each Edge added as part of
the Add Cluster
receives an OTP for verification). The password expires in 10 minutes, and
you must complete the authentication process before the OTP expires;
otherwise you have to request a new OTP.
Click Add.
This displays the newly added Cluster and Nodes in the
RUCKUS Edge screen.
Note: After the nodes are
added to the venue and onboarded, the Node Status
is Needs port
config.
