H3C Stack

Setting up IRF on H3C switches:

1. Preconfigure every IRF member in standalone mode to assign IRF member IDs and define priorities for your IRF members (highest priority = master)

<H3C>system-view
[H3C] irf member <member-id> <priority>

Select allOpen in new window

2. Bind physical ports to IRF ports (links you want to use to interconnect the IRFs)
<H3C>system-view

[H3C] irf-port <port-number>
[H3C-irf-port1/1] port group interface <port>

Select allOpen in new window

3. Enable enchanced IRF mode (required if IRF member count > 2)

<H3C>system-view
[H3C]irf mode enchanced

Select allOpen in new window

4. Save configuration

<H3C>save

Select allOpen in new window

5. Set operating mode to IRF (switch will automatically reboot!)

<H3C>system view
[H3C] chassis convert mode irf

Select allOpen in new window

Display mac addresses associated to an interface

<H3C> display mac-address interface <INTERFACE>
