Description
Use the fabric member-auto-update software enable command to enable the XRN automatic fabric
function for a switch.
Use the undo fabric member-auto-update software enable command to disable the XRN automatic
fabric function for a switch.
By default, the XRN automatic fabric function for a switch is disabled.
Switch 5500-EI series switches provide the XRN automatic fabric function, which enables a candidate
switch to automatically download the software and change the fabric name in case that the software
version and fabric name of the candidate device and that of the device in the fabric are different, thus
reducing the manual maintenance workload.
You need to enable the XRN automatic fabric function on all the devices including the candidate
switch in the fabric to enable the candidate switch to download software and discovery neighbors
and thus be added to the fabric normally.
If the candidate switch is going to download software from a unit in an XRN fabric, you are
recommended to set the ID of the unit to 1 to make the candidate switch download the software of
correct version.
Before configuring the XRN automatic fabric function, make sure that the candidate switch has
enough Flash space to download the software.
After you configure the XRN automatic fabric function on Slave, execute the save command to
save the configurations as soon as possible. Otherwise, the device may synchronize the
configurations from Master and restart repeatedly because the configurations on the device are
lost after the device automatically downloads the software and restarts.
