By default, the member ID of a member device is 1.
Note the following:
z
The above setting takes effect after the reboot of the device.
z
For an IRF virtual device, member IDs are not only used to identify devices, but also used to
configure IRF ports and member priorities. Therefore, member ID change may cause device
configuration changes or even losses, so change member ID with caution. For example, three
members (of same device model) with the member IDs of 1, 2 and 3 belong to an IRF virtual device.
Assume that each member has several ports: change the member ID of device 2 to 3, change that
of device 3 to 2, reboot both devices, and add them into the IRF virtual device again. Then device 2
uses the original port configurations of device 3, and device 3 uses those of device 2.
z
When the newly added device and another member have duplicated member IDs, the existing
member can preserve its ID, and the IRF virtual device automatically assigns the smallest unused
member ID to the new member.
Examples
# Set the member ID of the local device (the current member ID is 1) to 3.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] irf member 1 renumber 3
Warning: Renumbering the switch number may result in configuration change or loss.

Parameters
member-id
: ID of the IRF member device, in the range 1 to 9. With this argument, you can configure the
IRF ports of another IRF member on this device. You can view the member IDs of in IRF virtual device
by using the
display irf
command.
irf-port-id
: ID of an enabled IRF port, the value can be either 1 or 2.
port-list
: Physical IRF port list. The
port-list
is in the format of {
port
}&<1-4>, where
z
port
indicates the port ID. The physical IRF ports are numbered according to their physical
locations on the rear panel of the S5500-EI series. With the rear panel facing you, the physical IRF
ports are numbered successively from left to right: ports on the interface module in slot 1 are
numbered 1 and 2, and ports on the interface module in slot 2 are numbered 3 and 4.
z
&<1-4> indicates that you can specify one to four ports at one time. When multiple ports are
specified, they aggregate together to form an IRF port. On the S5500-EI series, only the physical
IRF ports that are on the same interface module can be aggregated together.
