Page 30: Setting Up An Irf Fabric
Setting up an IRF fabric You can use HP IRF technology to connect and virtualize HP FlexFabric 5930 switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability. To set up IRF links between multiple switches, use QSFP+ ports. -
Page 31: Planning Irf Fabric Setup
Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks to implement the top-of-rack (ToR) access solution for a data center. As your business grows, you can plug HP FlexFabric 5930 switches into the IRF fabric to increase the switching capacity without any topology change or replacement. -

Page 33: Identifying Physical Irf Ports On The Member Switches
All QSFP+ ports on the HP FlexFabric 5930 switch can be used for IRF connections. Planning the cabling scheme For the HP FlexFabric 5930 switches, use QSFP+ cables, or QSFP+ transceiver modules and fibers to connect the IRF member switches. If the IRF member switches are far away from one another, choose the QSFP+ transceiver modules with optical fibers. -
Page 34: Configuring Basic Irf Settings
Configuring basic IRF settings After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in to each IRF member switch (see HP FlexFabric 5930 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide) to configure their member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings. -
Page 35: Connecting The Physical Irf Ports
Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the remote network management station can reach each other. Use Telnet, Web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See HP FlexFabric 5930 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.) Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node. -
