Configuring basic IRF settings
After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in to each IRF member
switch (see
H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide ) to configure their
member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings.
Follow these guidelines when you configure the switches:
•
Assign the master switch higher member priority than any other switch.
•
Bind physical ports to IRF port 1 on one switch and to IRF port 2 on the other switch. You
perform IRF port binding before or after connecting IRF physical ports depending on the
software release.
•
To bind the ports on an interface module to an IRF port, you must install the interface module
first.
•
Execute the
display irf configuration
command to verify the basic IRF settings.
For more information about configuring basic IRF settings, see H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series IRF
Configuration Guide or H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide ,
depending on the software version.
Connecting the physical IRF ports
Use twisted pair cables, cables, or transceiver modules and fibers to connect the IRF member
switches as planned.
Wear an ESD wrist strap when you connect cables or transceiver modules and fibers. For how to
connect them, see
H3C Transceiver Modules and Network Cables Installation Guide .
Verifying the IRF fabric setup
To verify the basic functionality of the IRF fabric after you finish configuring basic IRF settings and
connecting IRF ports:
1. Log in to the IRF fabric through the console port of any member switch.
2. Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the
remote network management station can reach each other.
3. Use Telnet, web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See
H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide .)
4. Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.
5. Display the running status of the IRF fabric by using the commands in Table4-2 .
