Pre-configuring an IRF member switch in standalone
mode
You can configure the IRF ports, member ID, and member priority for the switch when it is operating in
standalone mode. These configurations take effect when the operating mode of the switch changes to
IRF.
Setting a member ID for the switch
•
A switch by default operates in standalone mode without an IRF member ID. You must assign it an
IRF member ID before you can set it in IRF mode. You can execute the
display irf configuration
command and check the
MemberID
field. If the switch has no IRF member ID, the field displays two
hyphens (--).
•
To avoid member ID collision with other members when the switch is added into an IRF fabric, plan
the member ID of this device when it operates in standalone mode.
