Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the
2.
remote network management station can reach each other.
Use Telnet, web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See

collisions. For more information about MAD detection, see HPE 5510 HI Switch Series IRF
