Irf Split; Symptom - HP FlexFabric 12900 series Troubleshooting Manual

a. Execute the display version command to identify the software version.
b. Upgrade the MPUs in the chassis to use the same software version as the IRF fabric.
NOTE:
Typically, the software auto-update feature can automatically synchronize a member chassis with the
software version of the master chassis. However, the synchronization might fail when the gap
between the software versions is large.
8. Verify that the chassis has a unique bridge MAC address:
a. Execute the display interface vlan-interface 1 command, and then check the Hardware
Address field.
[Sysname] display interface vlan-interface 1
Vlan-interface1 current state: UP
Line protocol current state: UP
Description: Vlan-interface1 Interface
The Maximum Transmit Unit is 1500
Internet protocol processing : disabled
IP Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2,
IPv6 Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2,
b. If the chassis has the same bridge MAC address as the IRF fabric, remove the bridge MAC
conflict.
9. If the problem persists, contact HP Support.
