Hi team,

Could you confirm if it is possible to implement the IRF using the 10GBase-T interfaces  (UTP) on 5130 swiitches? Eg.: Switch JG939A (48 10/100/1000, 2 SFP+, 2 10GbE-T) model.

Regards,

Gustavo.

You probaably want to read:

Software version: Release 2416

(or there might be later release document available, but could not find it)

Especially the restrictions page:

10-GE port restrictions for the HP 5900AF-48XGT-4QSFP+ Switch and HP 5900AF-48XGT-4QSFP+
TAA-Compliant Switch
When you use the 10-GE ports on the HP 5900AF-48XGT-4QSFP+ Switch and HP
5900AF-48XGT-4QSFP+ TAA-Compliant Switch as IRF physical interfaces, follow these restrictions and
guidelines:

• The 10-GE ports are grouped by port number in order, starting from 1. Each group contains four
ports. If you use one port in a group for IRF links, you must also use all the other ports in the group
for IRF links. However, you can bind the ports to different IRF ports.
• Before you bind a 10-GE port to an IRF port or remove it from the IRF port, you must shut down all
the 10-GE ports in the same group.
• Bring up the ports after you complete the operation
