VRRP CONFIGURATION
Refer the following sections to configure VRRP on your OmniAccess 5740 USG:
• “VRRP Configuration Steps”
• “VRRP Configuration Flow”
• “VRRP CLI Commands”
VRRP CONFIGURATION STEPS
The following are the steps to be followed when configuring VRRP:
Step 1: Enter into Configuration Mode.
ALU# configure terminal
ALU(config)#
Step 2: VRRP is configured on an interface. First, configure an interface.
ALU(config)# interface <name>
Example:
ALU(config)# interface GigabitEthernet3/0
ALU(config-if GigabitEthernet3/0)#
Note: The interface IP address must be configured and the operational state of the interface
must be up for VRRP to operate.
Step 3: Administratively bring up the interface
ALU(config-if <interface-name>)# no shutdown
Example:
ALU(config-if GigabitEthernet3/0)# no shutdown
Step 4: Configure IP address for the interface
ALU(config-if <interface-name>)# ip address {<ip-
address subnet-mask>|<ip-address/prefix-length>}
Example:
ALU(config-if GigabitEthernet3/0)# ip address
20.20.20.20/24
Step 5: Configure VRRP on the interface and configure primary IP address for the
VRRP Group. See “To Configure VRRP Group and Primary IP Address for the
Group”
Step 6: Configure the optional parameters for the VRRP group like: Secondary
IP address for the VRRP Group, Authentication, Priority, Preempt, Description,
Set an Advertisement interval, Learning the advertisement interval, interface
tracking. See “Modify Global VRRP Group Parameters”
Step 7: Use the “show” and “debug” commands to monitor and debug the VRRP
configuration. See “Monitor and Debug VRRP”
