Usage guidelines

After connecting the physical interfaces between two devices and binding them to the correct IRF ports, you must use this command to activate the settings on the IRF ports. This command merges the two devices into one IRF fabric.

The system activates the IRF port settings automatically in the following situations:

• The configuration file that the device starts with contains IRF port bindings.

• You are binding physical interfaces to an IRF port after an IRF fabric is formed.

Examples

To configure and activate IRF-port 1/2 when the port is in DIS state:

# Bind Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/0/27 to IRF-port 1/2.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitEthernet 1/1/0/27
[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/1/0/27] shutdown
[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/1/0/27] quit
[Sysname] irf-port 1/2
[Sysname-irf-port1/2] port group interface Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/0/27
You must perform the following tasks for a successful IRF setup:
Save the configuration after completing IRF configuration.
Execute the "irf-port-configuration active" command to activate the IRF ports.
[Sysname-irf-port1/2] quit
[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitEthernet 1/1/0/27
[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/1/0/27] undo shutdown
[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/1/0/27] quit

# Save the configuration so the IRF port settings can take effect after the device reboots.

[Sysname] save
