• Physical ports on interface
modules and the front panel can be
bound to the same IRF port.
• All physical ports to be bound to an
IRF port must have the same data
rate.
• A QSFP+ port that is split into four
virtual SFP+ ports cannot be used
as a physical IRF port.
• A QSFP28 port that is split into four
virtual SFP28 ports cannot be used
as a physical IRF port.
