Changing the member ID of a device
CAUTION:
In IRF mode, an IRF member ID change can invalidate member ID-related settings and cause data loss. Be
sure you fully understand its impact on your live network.
The new member ID takes effect at reboot. After the device reboots, the settings on all member ID related
physical resources (including common physical network ports) are removed, regardless of whether you
have saved the configuration.
To change the member ID of a member device:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Change the member ID of a
member device.

3. Save the running
configuration.
save [ safely ] [ force ] N/A
4. Reboot the member device. reboot chassis chassis-number
The chassis-number must be the same
as the member-id specified in the irf
member member-id renumber
new-member-id command.
Changing the priority of a member device
You can change the priority of a member device so it can be elected the master in the next master
election.
A change to member priority can affect the master re-election result. However, it does not cause an

When you perform this task, follow the IRF physical interface restrictions and configuration guidelines in
these sections:
• IRF physical interface requirements .
• Binding physical interfaces to IRF ports .
