  • Page 41: Setting Up An Irf Fabric

    Setting up an IRF fabric You can use H3C Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) technology to connect and virtualize S5830 switches into a virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" or "IRF virtual device" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability.

  • Page 42: Planning Irf Fabric Setup

    Power on the switches. Configure basic IRF For more information about IRF, see H3C S5830 Switch Series IRF settings. Configuration Guide. Connect the physical IRF ports on the switches. Use SFP+ transceiver modules and fibers to connect 10-Gigabit SFP+ ports over a long distance, or use SFP+ Connect the physical cables to connect 10-Gigabit SFP+ ports over a short distance.

  • Page 43: Planning Irf Topology And Connections

    NOTE: IRF member switches will automatically elect a master. You can affect the election result by assigning a high member priority to the intended master switch. For more information about master election, see S5830 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide Prepare an IRF member ID assignment scheme. An IRF fabric uses member IDs to uniquely identify and manage its members, and you must assign each IRF member switch a unique member ID.

    Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the remote network management station can reach each other. Use Telnet, web or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See H3C S5830 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.) Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.
