Page 35: Setting Up An Irf Fabric
Setting up an IRF fabric You can use HP IRF technology to connect and virtualize HP 5920 and 5900 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 HP 5920 and 5900 switches, use SFP+ ports, 1/10-GE Ethernet ports, or QSFP+ ports. -
Page 36: Planning Irf Fabric Setup
NOTE: As your business grows, you can plug an HP 5920 or 5900 switch into an IRF fabric to increase the switching capacity without any topology change or replacement.
