There is no firewall that prohibits the client from establishing communication ports to management hosts in the clusters.
All clusters to which the client is connecting have the same Symphony version and same patch level .
All cluster configuration files have the same security plugin configured. The default cluster configuration file %EGO_CONFDIR%\ego.conf on Windows and $EGO_CONFDIR/ego.conf on Linux.
You want a client to connect to the same application in a different cluster and to be able to submit work there. This is useful when you have several clusters and you want to take advantage of idle CPUs.
Use a cluster URL. For example:
When you specify a cluster URL, you use the keyword master_list, and indicate the master host name and port number.
Master hosts and master candidate hosts are specified in the ego.conf file in the cluster installation with the parameter EGO_MASTER_LIST.
The port number to use for connection is identified with the EGO_KD_PORT parameter in the cluster’s ego.conf file. All ports numbers must be the same.
