  • 1.  HP 5500 HI IRF

    Posted Feb 25, 2016 05:46 AM

    Hi all,

    I've got 2 HP 5500 HI switches that I'm trying to connect with IRF, with one pair of 10Gbe SFP+ transceivers connected with a fibre cable.  I've followed all the guides I can find and have set it up as I think it should be but when I connect the 2 switches, they initially show IRF port as up before failing with a heartbeat timeout message.  I've made sure the switches are on the same firmware.  Here's my config for the master switch:

    #

    I can't work out what it is that I'm doing wrong.  Can anyone help?

     

    Thanks in advance

    Did you shutdown the ports you use for the IRF link before you added them to the IRF port group?

    Yes, I shut them down first.  When I connect the fibre, the port becomes up for a few seconds then fails.

    Hi,

    I think that you have logical IRF port misconfiguration.

    logical IRF port 1 has to be connected to logical IRF port 2.

    So IRF 1/1 should be connected ot IRF port 2/2.

    Try to change configuration in second device. Delete IRF port 2/1  and create the IRF port 2/2.

    BR,

    Jan

    Kind Regards,
