instance you will have to add the following include directive to your
`icinga2.conf` configuration file:
- include IcingaLocalStateDir + "/lib/icinga2/cluster/config/*/*"
+ include_recursive IcingaLocalStateDir + "/lib/icinga2/cluster/config"

+### Cluster Naming Convention
+
+The SSL certificate common name (CN) will be used by the [ClusterListener](pbjecttype-clusterlistener)
+object to determine the local authority. This name must match the local [Endpoint](#objecttype-endpoint)
+object name.
+
+Example:
+
+ # icinga2-build-key icinga-node-1
+ ...
+ Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) [icinga-node-1]:
+
+ # vim cluster.conf
+
+ object Endpoint "icinga-node-1" {
+ host = "icinga-node-1.localdomain",
+ port = 8888
+ }
+
+The [Endpoint](#objecttype-endpoint) name is further referenced as `peers` attribute on the
+[ClusterListener](pbjecttype-clusterlistener) object.
+
+ object Endpoint "icinga-node-2" {
+ host = "icinga-node-2.localdomain",
+ port = 8888
+ }
+
+ object ClusterListener "cluster" {
+ ca_path = "/etc/icinga2/ca/ca.crt",
+ cert_path = "/etc/icinga2/ca/icinga-node-1.crt",
+ key_path = "/etc/icinga2/ca/icinga-node-1.key",
+
+ bind_port = 8888,
+
+ peers = [ "icinga-node-2" ]
+ }
+
+Specifying the local node name using the [IcingaNodeName](#global-constants) variable requires
+the same name as used for the endpoint name and common name above. If not set, the FQDN is used.
+
+ const IcingaNodeName = "icinga-node-1"
