Usage guidelines

To avoid an auto reboot failure, make sure the auto reboot function is enabled on both IRF fabrics

that are merging.

This command is available in IRF mode. The configuration of this command will be lost when you

change to the standalone mode, even if you have saved the configuration.

The auto reboot function takes effect for an IRF merge that occurs when the IRF link recovers from

a link failure, or when you connect the IRF physical ports of the member devices. It does not take

effect for the IRF merge that occurs when you bind a physical port to an IRF port in IRF mode.

If two IRF members are connected with relay devices, the link failure between relay devices cannot

cause the IRF fabric to split within 20 seconds. When the time limit exceeds, the IRF fabric splits.

The member devices of the IRF fabric defeated in the master election will reboot automatically to

join the reunited IRF fabric after the IRF link recovers, regardless of whether the auto reboot

function is enabled or not.
