Page 31: Setting Up An Irf Fabric
Setting up an IRF fabric You can use IRF technology to connect and virtualize HPE FlexFabric 5710 switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability. The switch can set up an IRF fabric only with switches from the same switch series. -
Page 32: Planning Irf Fabric Setup
Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks to implement the top-of-rack (ToR) access solution for a data center. As your business grows, you can plug HPE FlexFabric 5710 switches into the IRF fabric to increase the switching capacity without any topology change or replacement. -
