Arp Mad-Enabled Irf Configuration Example - HPE FlexFabric 5700 Series Configuration Manual

ARP MAD-enabled IRF configuration example

Network requirements
As shown in
•
Configure ARP MAD in the IRF fabric and use the links connected to Device E for transmitting
ARP MAD packets.
•
To prevent loops, run the spanning tree feature between Device E and the IRF fabric.

Configuration procedure
1. Configure Device A:
# Shut down the physical interfaces used for IRF links. This example uses the SFP+ port group
that contains Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/45 to Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/48 for IRF links.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface range ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/45 to ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/48
[Sysname-if-range] shutdown
[Sysname-if-range] quit
# Bind Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/45 and Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/46 to IRF-port 1/1.
[Sysname] irf-port 1/1
[Sysname-irf-port1/1] port group interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/45
[Sysname-irf-port1/1] port group interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/46
[Sysname-irf-port1/1] quit
# Bind Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/47 and Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/48 to IRF-port 1/2.
[Sysname] irf-port 1/2
[Sysname-irf-port1/2] port group interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/47
