# Default Queue Manager Configuration

Note: The name of the default queue manager is based on your computer name. This makes it easy to find when you are remotely administering queue managers on other computers from the WebSphere® MQ Explorer.

Remote administration
  Check Allow to allow this queue manager on this computer to be administered by a user on a remote WebSphere MQ computer. This is independent of whether or not this queue manager is joined to a cluster, but you would normally enable remote administration to enjoy the full benefits of single-point administration that clustering provides.
Join the default cluster
  Note: The name of the default cluster is set as `DEFAULT_CLUSTER`. This means that all WebSphere MQ installations on computers connected to the same network are ready to join the same cluster, and thus be ready to start sending messages to each other immediately, using the default configuration.
  To join queue managers to the same cluster, each queue manager must specify the same cluster name, one of the computers must be defined as the cluster repository, and all of the others must be set to use that same repository. You will set this up on the next panel, Join Default Cluster.
