Bulk-configuring basic IRF settings for a member device

IMPORTANT:

The member device reboots immediately after you specify a new member ID for it. Make sure you are aware of the impact on the network.

Use the easy IRF feature to bulk-configure basic IRF settings for a member device, including the member ID, domain ID, priority, and IRF port bindings.

The easy IRF feature provides the following configuration methods:

Interactive method—Enter the easy-irf command without parameters. The system will guide you to set the parameters step by step.
Non-interactive method—Enter the easy-irf command with parameters.

As a best practice, use the interactive method if you are new to IRF.

When you specify IRF physical interfaces for an IRF port, you must follow the IRF port binding restrictions in "IRF physical interface requirements."

If you specify IRF physical interfaces by using the interactive method, you must also follow these restrictions and guidelines:

Do not enter spaces between the interface type and interface number.
Use a comma (,) to separate two physical interfaces. No spaces are allowed between interfaces.

To bulk-configure basic IRF settings for a device:

Step	Command	Remarks
1. Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2. Bulk-configure basic IRF settings for the device.	easy-irf [ member member-id [ renumber new-member-id ] domain domain-id [ priority priority ] [ irf-port1 interface-list1 ] [ irf-port2 interface-list2 ] ]	Make sure the new member ID is unique in the IRF fabric to which the device will be added. If you execute this command multiple times, the following settings take effect: The most recent settings for the member ID, domain ID, and priority. IRF port bindings added through executions of the command. You can bind a maximum of eight physical interfaces to an IRF port. To remove an IRF physical interface from an IRF port, you must use the undo port group interface command in IRF port view.
