Accessing an Active/Passive Cluster

Once your two-node Active/Passive cluster is established, you can access the Active node via a browser.

To do this, you must enter the hostname for the cluster into your browser’s address bar and press Enter.

After a short time, the graphical user interface for the Active node is displayed. The status of the cluster, the status of the current Active node and the automatic failover switch state are always displayed in the Pulse One GUI. Refer to the Pulse One Appliance Administration Guide.
You must have previously configured your DNS to resolve to both IP addresses for the cluster, see Prerequisites.
If DNS is not configured to resolve to both IP addresses for the cluster, it is possible to access either node using its IP address. However, this scenario does not support automatic failover. Pulse Secure recommends that you do not access individual clustered nodes using their IP addresses, as this does not support authentication of the server.
