Usage guidelines
CAUTION:
In an IRF fabric, changing IRF member IDs might cause undesirable configuration changes and even data
loss. Before you do that, back up the configuration and make sure you fully understand the impact on your
network. For example, all member switches in an IRF fabric are the same model. If you swapped the IDs
of any two members, their interface settings would also be swapped.
To create an IRF fabric, you must assign a unique IRF member ID to each switch.
Assigning IRF member IDs before the IRF fabric is formed. To prevent any undesirable configuration
change or data loss, avoid changing member IDs after the IRF fabric is formed.
The new member ID takes effect at a reboot. After the switch reboots, the settings on all member-ID
related physical resources (including common physical network ports) are removed and require
reconfiguration, regardless of whether you have saved the configuration.
To cancel the change before you reboot the member switch, use the
irf member renumber
command
rather than its
undo
form. In the command, set the new member ID to be the same as the old member ID.
Examples
# Change the member ID of an IRF member from 1 to 3.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] irf member 1 renumber 3
Warning: Renumbering the switch number may result in configuration change or loss.
Continue?[Y/N]:Y
# Change the member ID of an IRF member from 2 to 4.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] irf member 2 renumber 4
Warning: Renumbering the switch number may result in configuration change or loss.
Continue?[Y/N]y
# Cancel the change in the preceding example before rebooting the switch.
[Sysname] irf member 2 renumber 2
Warning: Renumbering the switch number may result in configuration change or loss.
