O SET THE ADVERTISEMENT INTERVAL
The VRRP advertisement command configures the advertisement interval for the
VRRP group.
• By default the timer value is configured in seconds. It is in the range 1 - 255.
• The timer value can be configured in milliseconds by using the keyword msec. It
is in the range 50 - 999 msecs.

Note: When you want to initiate switch over of routers/or bring down an interface, which is
VRRP enabled, it is advisable to perform a 'no vrrp' on the interface and then issue
'shutdown' command. This ensures backup router transitions to master state
immediately without any time delay.
