Add-NlbClusterNodeDip

Adds a dedicated IP address to a Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster.

Syntax

Add-NlbClusterNodeDip
   [-IP] <IPAddress>
   [-SubnetMask <IPAddress>]
   [-HostName <String>]
   -InterfaceName <String>
   [<CommonParameters>]
Add-NlbClusterNodeDip
   -InputObject <Node[]>
   [-IP] <IPAddress>
   [-SubnetMask <IPAddress>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Add-NlbClusterNodeDip cmdlet adds a dedicated IP address to a Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster. NLB references the dedicated IP address to handle both client-to-cluster traffic and other network traffic that must go specifically to the cluster node.

This cmdlet changes the configuration on all cluster nodes. As a result, the NLB cluster will have to restart the convergence process on all nodes to guarantee that configuration changes have been applied on all nodes and that a consistent state is reached. Any additional operations on the NLB cluster should not be initiated until all cluster nodes have completed the convergence process and are back to the converged state.

Examples

Example 1: Add a dedicated IP address to a cluster node

PS C:\>Get-NlbClusterNode "Node02" | Add-NlbClusterNodeDip -IP fe80::b3c4:cc5:64dd:6e62
Node                       IPAddress                  SubnetMask 
----                       ---------                  ---------- 
Node02                     fe80::b3c4:cc5:64dd:6e62

This command adds the specified dedicated IP address to the cluster node named Node02.

Example 2: Add a dedicated IP address to a cluster node on the specified interface

PS C:\>Add-NlbClusterNodeDip -HostName "Node02" -InterfaceName "Vlan-03" -IP fe80::b3c4:cc5:64dd:6e62
Node                       IPAddress                  SubnetMask 
----                       ---------                  ---------- 
Node02                     fe80::b3c4:cc5:64dd:6e62

This command adds the specified dedicated IP address to the cluster node named node2 on the interface named Vlan-03.

Parameters

-HostName

Specifies the name of the cluster host against which this cmdlet is run. If this parameter is omitted or a value of . is entered, then the local cluster is assumed.

Type:String
Aliases:Host, HN, H
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject

Specifies an array of nodes of the cluster to which this cmdlet adds the dedicated IP address.

Type:Node[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InterfaceName

Specifies the interface to which NLB is bound. This is the interface of the cluster against which this cmdlet is run.

Type:String
Aliases:Interface, IN, I
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-IP

Specifies the dedicated IP address for the new cluster node.

Type:IPAddress
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-SubnetMask

Specifies the subnet mask for the dedicated IP address of the new cluster node.

Type:IPAddress
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
