Setting up an IRF fabric 

You can use H3C IRF technology to connect and virtualize S6520X-EI or S6520X-HI switches into a 
large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, 
scalability, and manageability. 

An S6520X-EI or S6520X-HI switch can set up an IRF fabric only with switches from the same switch 
series.
