Bfd Mad-Enabled Irf Configuration Example - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

BFD MAD-enabled IRF configuration example

Network requirements
Set up a four-chassis IRF fabric at the distribution layer of the enterprise network in
Configure BFD MAD in the IRF fabric and set up BFD MAD links between each member device and the
intermediate device.
Disable the spanning tree feature on the ports used for BFD MAD, because the two features conflict with
each other.
Assign the highest member priority to Device A so it can be elected as the master.

Configuration procedure
1. Configure Device A:
# Shut down the physical ports used for IRF connection. This example uses the SFP+ port group that
contains Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/7, Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/8, Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/11,
and Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/12 for IRF connection.
