You can affect the election result by assigning a high member priority to the intended master switch. For more information about master election, see H3C S5850 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. -
Page 36: Identifying Physical Irf Ports On The Member Switches
As a best practice to avoid loop topology, first complete IRF configuration and then connect the IRF member switches. The S5850 switches can provide 10-GE/40-GE IRF connections through SFP+ ports/QSFP+ ports, and you can bind several SFP+ ports/QSFP+ ports to an IRF port for increased bandwidth and availability. -
Page 37: Planning The Cabling Scheme
If the IRF member switches are all in one equipment room, choose SFP+/QSFP+ cables. For more information about SFP+/QSFP+ cables and SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules, see ports in Hardware Information and Specifications. The following subsections describe several H3C recommended IRF connection schemes, and all these schemes use a ring topology. IMPORTANT: In these schemes, all physical IRF ports are located on the same side. -
Page 38: Configuring Basic Irf Settings
• To bind the ports on an interface card to an IRF port, you must install the interface card first. For how to install an interface card, see H3C S5850 Switch Series Interface Cards User Guide. • Execute the command to verify the basic IRF settings. -
Page 39: Verifying The Irf Fabric Setup
Wear an ESD wrist strap when you connect SFP+/QSFP+ cables or SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules and fibers. For how to connect them, see H3C Transceiver Modules and Network Cables Installation Guide. Verifying the IRF fabric setup To verify the basic functionality of the IRF fabric after you finish configuring basic IRF settings and connecting IRF ports: Log in to the IRF fabric through the console port of any member switch. -
