IRF Configuration Guide

Covers the features of the Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) technology that is proprietary to H3C. The IRF features include IRF and IRF 3.

·          IRF virtualizes multiple physical devices at the same layer into one virtual fabric to provide data center class availability and scalability. The switches that form the IRF fabric work in 1:N redundancy and appear as one unit in the network.

·          IRF 3 integrates multiple lower-layer devices (PEXs) with a higher-layer IRF fabric (parent fabric) to provide high-density, low-cost connectivity at the access layer. You can manage and configure the PEXs from the parent fabric as if they were interface modules on the parent fabric.

The IRF technology features improve management efficiency and streamline network topologies. They are suitable for highly reliable enterprise networks and data centers.
