Description
Use irf auto-update enable to enable the software auto-update function for propagating the system
software image of the master to all its members.
Use undo irf auto-update enable to disable this function.
By default, software auto-update for subordinate switches is enabled.
When you add a switch to the IRF fabric, the software auto-update function compares the system software
versions of the switch and the IRF master. If the versions are different, the switch automatically downloads
the system software image from the master, sets the downloaded file as the system software for the next
reboot, and automatically reboots with the new system software image to re-join the IRF fabric.
To avoid an update failure, make sure the switch has efficient space for the new system software image.
If the switch you are adding to the IRF fabric is incompatible with the software version running on the
master, the software auto-update function cannot work correctly.
If software auto-update function is disabled, you must manually update the switch with the system
software image of the master.
Examples
# Enable the software auto-update function.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] irf auto-update enable
irf domain
Syntax
irf domain domain-id
undo irf domain
View
System view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
domain-id: Specifies a domain ID for the IRF fabric. The value range is 0 to 4294967295.
Description
Use irf domain to assign a domain ID to an IRF fabric.
Use undo irf domain to restore the default IRF domain ID.
The default IRF domain ID is 0.
One IRF fabric forms one IRF domain. IRF uses IRF domain IDs to uniquely identify IRF fabrics and prevent
IRF fabrics from interfering with one another.
If you use a member in one IRF fabric as the intermediate device for performing ARP MAD or LACP MAD
for another IRF fabric, assign the two IRF fabrics different domain IDs to avoid false detection of IRF split.
Examples
# Set the IRF domain ID to 30.
