To do...
Enter physical IRF port view
Shut down the port
Return to system view
Create an IRF port and enter IRF
port view
Bind a physical IRF port to the IRF
port
Verify the binding configuration
Return to system view
Enter physical IRF port view
Bring up the port
Return to system view
NOTE:
After you bind a physical port to an IRF port, all services configured before the binding on the physical
•
port become invalid. Make sure that the previous services are not interrupted.
• To bind several physical IRF ports to an IRF port, execute the port group interface command multiple
times. Aggregate IRF ports expand network bandwidth and provide link redundancy. The maximum
number of physical IRF ports that can be bound to an IRF port is 12. When the upper limit is reached,
the execution of this command fails.
Before you create or remove an IRF port binding, always shut down the physical IRF port. After you are
•
finished, perform the undo shutdown command to bring up the port. If the system prevents you from
shutting down a port for avoiding anomalies, follow the system instructions to disable its peer port.
A combo port cannot be bound to an IRF port. For information about combo ports, see
•
Configuration Guide.
• If a common Ethernet interface functions as a physical IRF port and is bound to an IRF port, you can
execute the shutdown, description, flow-control, oam enable, oam loopback, and oam mode
commands only on the physical IRF port. For more information about the shutdown, description, and
flow-control commands, see
To make sure that the configuration takes effect at the next switch startup, save configurations to the
•
startup configuration file that will be used at the next startup after binding a physical port to an IRF port
or canceling the binding.
