ports and use local UP port to connect peer DOWN port or use local DOWN port to
connect peer UP port. Otherwise, the Fabric cannot function normally.

device. Hence, before you enable the fabric port, do not perform any configuration for
the port, and do not enable some functions that affect the IRF (such as TACACAS and
