Shutting Down All Client Interfaces

The client interfaces in the cluster can be shut down when performing a hitless upgrade operation. This results in failover of traffic to the peer device.

To shut down all the client interfaces in the cluster, enter the following commands.

  1. Enter the Global Configuration mode.
    RUCKUS-1# configure terminal
  2. Configure a cluster name and ID.
    RUCKUS-1(config)# cluster SW 4000
    If you do not specify a cluster name, the device will automatically generate the cluster name as CLUSTER-X.
  3. Shut down all the client interfaces in the cluster.
    RUCKUS-1(config-cluster-SW)# client-interfaces shutdown
