b.
If the member ID of the device is not unique, use the
irf member renumber
command to assign
a new member ID to the device.
3.
Verify that the physical IRF links are connected correctly:
IMPORTANT:
When you connect two neighboring IRF members, you must connect the physical ports of IRF-port 1
on one member to the physical ports of IRF-port 2 on the other.
a.
Execute the
display irf configuration
command on each member device, and check the
IRF-Port1
and
IRF-Port2
fields for IRF port bindings.
b.
Verify that the physical IRF connections are consistent with the IRF port bindings.
c.
If there are inconsistencies, reconfigure the IRF port bindings or reconnect the physical IRF
ports.
4.
Verify that IRF links are 10 Gbps:
a.
Verify that the transceiver modules or cables for IRF connection are labeled with
10Gbps
or
SFP+
.
b.
Replace a transceiver module or cable if it is not for 10 Gbps connection.
5.
Verify that all IRF links are up:
a.
Execute the
display irf topology
command, and then check the
Link
field.
b.
If the
Link
field for an IRF port displays
DOWN
, execute the
display interface
command.
c.
Check the
current state
field for each physical port bound to the IRF port:
−
If the field displays
DOWN ( Administratively )
, execute the
undo shutdown
command to
bring up the port.
−
If the field displays
DOWN
, verify that the transceiver modules or cables are operating
correctly.
If the IRF port is down when it contains at least one up link, go to step
d
.
d.
Save the configuration, and then execute the
irf-port-configuration active
command in system
view to activate the IRF port configuration.
IMPORTANT:
Activating IRF port configuration requires a reboot. To prevent configuration loss, you must save
the configuration before you execute the
irf-port-configuration active
command.
6.
Verify that the member device is running the same software version as the IRF fabric:
a.
Execute the
display version
command to identify the software version.
b.
Upgrade the member device to use the same software version as the IRF fabric.
NOTE:
Typically, the
irf auto-update enable
command can automatically synchronize a member device with
the software version of the master device. However, the synchronization might fail when the gap
between the software versions is too large. For more information, see the release notes for the
software versions.
7.
If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.
Execute the
display diagnostic-information
command, save the diagnostic information, and
provide it to H3C Support.
