    Setting up an IRF fabric You can use HP IRF technology to connect and virtualize HP 5920 and 5900 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 HP 5920 and 5900 series switches, use SFP+ ports or QSFP+ ports.

  • Page 37: Planning Irf Fabric Setup

    Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks to implement the top-of-rack (ToR) access solution for a data center. NOTE: As your business grows, you can plug an HP 5920 or 5900 switch into an IRF fabric to increase the • switching capacity without any topology change or replacement.

    Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure that the IRF fabric and the remote network management station can reach each other. Use Telnet, web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See HP 5920 & 5900 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.) Check that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.
