Configuration procedure

1.

Configure Device A:

# Shut down the physical interfaces used for IRF links. This example uses the crosslink ports
Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/17 to Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/20. By default, the four ports are shut
down to avoid loops.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface range ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/17 to ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/20

[Sysname-if-range] shutdown

[Sysname-if-range] quit

# Bind Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/17 to Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/20 to IRF-port 1/1.

2.

Configure Device B:

# Change the member ID of Device B to 2 and reboot the device to validate the change.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] irf member 1 renumber 2

Renumbering the member ID may result in configuration change or loss. Continue? [Y/N]:y

[Sysname] quit

<Sysname> reboot

# Log into Device B. (Details not shown.)

# Shut down the physical interfaces used for IRF links. This example uses the crosslink ports
Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/0/17 to Ten-GigabitEthernet 2/0/20. By default, the four ports are shut
down to avoid loops.
