Clustring 29xx with C4006 in senter.

[TOR PRETORIUS]

Cisco Catalyst 29xx Clustering technology enables up to 16 maximum interconnected switches, to a managed from single-IP address.

The Switch 29xx use CDP to discover neighbors

but the Catalyst 4006 is the neighbor to all C29xx switch

My question is

It is posible to clustring number of switch-C29xx with Catalyst 4006 in senter of a star topology ???

Clustering is not supported on the 4000. Only the 35xx/29xx and 19xx's support this feature. Since CDP does not transit a cisco Device (i.e. 4006) this would not be possible with the 4006 as the hub.

It is not supported-

Please refer the following URL

When a switch that supports CDP but does not support clustering is connected to the command switch, the cluster is unable to discover candidates that are attached to it. For example, cluster builder cannot create a cluster that includes candidates that are connected to a Catalyst 5000 or 6000 series switch connected to the command switch.
