Parameters

member-id: Specifies the ID of an IRF member, in the range of 1 to 10.

new-member-id: Assigns a new ID to the IRF member, in the range of 1 to 10.

Usage guidelines

	CAUTION: IRF member ID change can cause losses of member ID-related configurations at reboot, including settings on physical interfaces.

To have the new ID take effect, you must reboot the IRF member.

When adding a device into an IRF fabric, you must assign a unique IRF member ID to the device. If its IRF member ID has been used in the IRF fabric, the device cannot join the IRF fabric.

Plan IRF member ID assignment before setting up an IRF fabric, and change member IDs before configuring any other features.

Interchanging member IDs between IRF member devices might cause undesirable configuration changes and data loss. For example, the IRF member IDs of Device A and Device B are 2 and 3, respectively. After you interchange their member IDs, their port settings also interchange.

After an IRF fabric is formed, make sure you understand the impact of the member ID change on the network.

Examples

# Change the ID of an IRF member from 1 to 3.

<Sysname> display irf
[Sysname] irf member 1 renumber 3
