No, master/slave brokers, or any broker, participating in a network, should never share names or IDs; they should be unique to each broker. I usually make the brokerID and name the same for a single broker.
I asked a similar question last year, then answered it myself, hope this helps: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32344317/activemq-5-11-network-of-brokers-and-master-slave-group-config -- Sent from: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/ActiveMQ-User-f2341805.html
