Setting up an IRF fabric

You can use IRF technology to connect and virtualize HPE FlexFabric 5940 switches into a large
virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability,
and manageability.

To set up IRF links between two switches, use the 10-GE, 40-GE, or 100-GE ports.

To set up an IRF fabric:

Step Description

Plan IRF fabric setup.

Plan the installation site and IRF fabric setup parameters:

•

Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site

•

Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs

•

Planning IRF topology and connections

•

Identifying physical IRF ports on the member switches

•

Planning the cabling scheme
