On the switch, the SFP+ ports, and QSFP+ ports can be used for IRF connection. When two 6125XLG switches are plugged into adjacent (side-by-side) interconnect bays of the c7000, the internal 10-GE cross connect ports between those adjacent 6125XLG can be used for an IRF connection as well. For more information about the transceiver modules and cables available for the SFP+ and QSFP+ ports, see Table 7, Table 8, Table 9, and Table 10. Configuring basic IRF settings After you install the IRF member blade switches, power on the blade switches, and log in to each IRF member blade switch (see HP 6125XLG Blade Switch Fundamentals Configuration Guide) to configure their member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings. For more information about configuring basic IRF settings, see HP 6125XLG Blade Switch IRF Configuration Guide. 13
