  • Page 47: Identifying Physical Irf Ports On The Member Switches

    For a short-distance IRF connection in an equipment room, use a twisted-pair cable, SFP+ cable, SFP28 cable, or QSFP+ cable. For a long-distance IRF connection, use SFP+/SFP28/QSFP+ transceiver modules and optical fibers. The following subsections describe several H3C recommended IRF connection schemes. All these schemes use a ring topology. 4-45...
  • Page 48 IMPORTANT: In these schemes, all physical IRF ports are located on the same side. If physical IRF ports are on different sides, you must measure the distance between them to select an appropriate cable.

    To avoid IP address collision and network problems, configure a minimum of one multi-active detection (MAD) mechanism to detect the presence of multiple identical IRF fabrics and handle collisions. For more information about MAD detection, see H3C S5560X-EI Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide or H3C S5560X-EI Switch Series Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide, depending on the software version.

    Verify that the ambient temperature of the switch is in the acceptable range and ensure good ventilation for the power module. Overtemperature can cause the power module to stop working and enter the protection state. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support. AC and DC concurrent input failure Symptom 1 The switch uses concurrent AC and DC power inputs.
