Default Level
3: Manage level
Parameters
member-id: ID of the IRF member, in the range 1 to 4. With this argument, you can modify a member
ID of another IRF member on this device. You can view the member IDs of in an IRF by using the
display irf command.
new-member-id: New ID of the IRF member, in the range 1 to 4.
Description
Use the irf member renumber command to set a member ID for a device.
Use the undo irf member renumber command to cancel the configuration.
By default, the member ID of an IRF member is 1.
Note the following:
The above setting takes effect after the reboot of the device.
In an IRF, member IDs are not only used to identify devices, but also used to identify the port
configurations on different member devices in the configuration file. Therefore, modifying a
member ID may cause device configuration changes or even losses, so modify member ID with
caution. For example, three members (of same device model) with the member IDs of 1, 2 and 3
are connected to an IRF port. Suppose that each member has several ports: change the member
ID of device 2 to 3, change that of device 3 to 2, reboot both devices, and add them into the IRF
again. Then device 2 will use the original port configurations of device 3, and device 3 will use
those of device 2.
When the newly added device and another member have duplicated member IDs, the existing
member can preserve its ID, and the system will automatically assign the smallest unused
member ID to the new member.
Examples
# Set the member ID of the local device (the current member ID is 1) to 3.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] irf member 1 renumber 3
Warning: Renumbering the switch number may result in configuration change or loss.
