Convert a Single Layer 2 Engine to a Layer 2 Engine Cluster
You can use a conversion tool to convert an existing Single Layer 2 Engine to a Layer 2 Engine Cluster.
Using the conversion tool maintains the relationship of the Single Layer 2 Engine element and other configurations in the system. The conversion requires you to select one Single Layer 2 Engine element to convert to a Layer 2 Engine Cluster.
The following limitations apply when you convert a Single Layer 2 Engine to a Layer 2 Engine Cluster:
- It is not possible to combine two Single Layer 2 Engine elements into a Layer 2 Engine Cluster element.
- A Single Layer 2 Engine can only be converted to a two-node Layer 2 Engine Cluster. To add more nodes to the cluster, add the nodes separately after the conversion.
CAUTION:
If you change the control IP address of the existing node in this process, the connection between the Secure SD-WAN Engine and the
SMC is lost.
