The following example congures a VRRP owner device.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# router vrrp
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/5
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ip address 10.53.5.3/24
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ip vrrp vrid 1
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# backup priority 110
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# version 2
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# hello-interval 10
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# advertise backup
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# ip-address 10.53.5.1
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# activate
VRRP router 1 for this interface is activating
Enabling an IPv6 VRRPv3 backup device
This task is performed on all the devices that are designated as backup VRRPv3 devices. Initially a backup priority is set to 100. For
each VRRPv3 session there are master and backup routers, the IPv6 address assigned here to the VRID is the IPv6 address of the
master router. The task is repeated on each backup VRRPv3 device with corresponding changes to the interface number and IPv6
address of the interface.
NOTE
When implementing IPv6 VRRPv3 across a network with devices from other vendors, be aware of a potential interoperability
issue with IPv6 VRRPv3 and other vendor equipment. Brocade has implemented IPv6 VRRPv3 functionality to comply with
RFC 5798 and will interoperate comfortably with other vendors that support RFC 5798.
1. On the device designated as a backup VRRPv3 device, from privileged EXEC mode, enter conguration mode by issuing the
congure terminal command.
device# configure terminal
2. Globally enable the IPv6 VRRP protocol.
device(config)# ipv6 router vrrp
3. Congure the ethernet interface link for the owner device.
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/4
4. Congure the IPv6 address of the interface.
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4)# ipv6 address 3013::3/64
5. Assign the backup device to the virtual router ID (VRID) 2.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/4)# ipv6 vrrp vrid 2
NOTE
You can assign a VRID number in the range of 1 through 255.
6. Designate this router as the VRRPv3 backup device and assign a priority of 100.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-1)# backup priority 100
7. Congure the VRRP version.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# version 3
