Precautions Before configuring an XRN fabric, make sure that the software versions of each switch are the same.

Make sure that the switches in a fabric are correctly interconnected through the fabric ports.

Establishing an XRN system requires a high consistency of the configuration of each device. Hence, before you enable the fabric port, do not perform any configuration for the port, and do not configure some functions that affect the XRN (such as HWTACACS and VLAN-VPN) for other ports or globally.
