- Configure a cluster address. This command advertises the address for routing purposes. On AIX,
the address is aliased to the network interface card. If servers are defined for NAT forwarding, the
return address that is used for the server is also configured when the cluster is configured.
Note: The cluster address is required, but the interface and netmask configurations are optional.
