Brocade Communications Systems FastIron X Series User Manual

4. Congure the ethernet interface link for the owner device.
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/5
5. Congure the IPv6 address of the interface.
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ipv6 address 3013::2/64
6. Assign the owner device to the virtual router ID (VRID) 2.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ipv6 vrrp vrid 2
NOTE
You can assign a VRID number in the range of 1 through 255.
7. Designate this router as the VRRP owner device.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# owner
8. Congure the VRRP version.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# version 3
9. Assign an IPv6 link-local address to the VRID for use in the local network.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# ipv6-address fe80::768e:f8ff:fe2a:0099
10. Assign a global IPv6 address to the VRID.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# ipv6-address 3013::2
11. Enable the VRRP session.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# activate
The following example
congures a VRRP owner device.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing
device(config)# ipv6 router vrrp
device(config-ipv6-vrrp-router)# interface ethernet 1/1/5
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ipv6 address 3013::2/64
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ipv6 vrrp vrid 2
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# owner
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# version 3
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# ipv6-address fe80::768e:f8ff:fe2a:0099
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# ipv6-address 3013::2
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-2)# activate
Enabling a backup VRRP device
This task is performed on any device that is designated as a backup VRRP device. For each VRRP virtual routing instance there is one
master device and all other devices are backups. For example, Router 2 in Figure 36 on page 519 is assigned as a backup device.
Repeat this task for all devices that are to be designated as backup devices.
1. On the device designated as a backup VRRP device, from privileged EXEC mode, enter
conguration mode by issuing the
congure terminal command.
device# configure terminal
