Adding physical ports to an IRF port
An IRF port can have up to eight physical ports. In IRF mode, you can add more physical ports to an IRF
port. This task does not affect the ongoing traffic on the IRF port.
When you perform this task, follow the IRF physical port restrictions and configuration guidelines in "IRF
ph
ysical port restrictions" and "Binding physical ports to IRF ports."
To configure IRF ports:
Ste
p
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter Ethernet interface view
or interface range view.
• Enter interface range view:
interface range { interface-type
interface-number [ to interface-type
interface-number ] } &<1-5>
• Enter interface view:
interface interface-type
interface-number
To shut down a range of physical
IRF ports, enter interface range
view.
To shut down one physical IRF
port, enter its interface view.
3. Shut down the port or ports.
shutdown
If the system does not allow you
to shut down a physical port,
follow the system instruction to
shut down its remote peer port.
4. Return to system view.
quit N/A
5. Enter IRF port view.
irf-port member-id/port-number N/A
6. Bind each physical port to
the IRF port.
port group interface interface-type
interface-number [ mode { enhanced |
normal } ]
By default, no physical ports are
bound to any IRF port.
Repeat this step to assign
multiple physical ports to the IRF
port for link redundancy.
You can bind up to eight
physical ports to an IRF port.
The binding attempt will fail if
you have bound eight physical
ports to the IRF port.
Make sure the two ends of an IRF
link use the same binding mode.
7. Return to system view.
quit
N/A
8. Enter physical IRF port view
or interface range view.
• Enter interface range view:
interface range { interface-type
interface-number [ to interface-type
interface-number ] } &<1-5>
• Enter interface view:
interface interface-type
interface-number
N/A
9. Bring up the port or ports.
undo shutdown N/A
10. Return to system view.
quit N/A
