NOTE:
Figure 13
and
Figure 14
show the topologies for an IRF fabric made up of HP 6125G blade switches for
IRF connections.
The IRF port connections in the two figures are for illustration only, and more connection methods are
available.
Any or all of the four SFP+ ports on the 6125G/XG can be used either for IRF or data connections.
