Syntax: [no] ipv6 router vrrp-extended
Syntax: [no] ipv6-address ipv6-address
Syntax: [no] ipv6 vrrp-extended vrid vrid
Syntax: [no] backup [ priority value] [ track-priority value ]
Syntax: [no] activate
The vrid variable species the virtual router ID.
The ipv6-address variable species the IPv6 address of the router.
You must identify a VRRP-E router as a Backup before you can activate the virtual router on a Brocade device. However, after you
congure the virtual router, you can use the backup command to change its priority or track priority.
The priority value option species the IPv6 VRRP-E priority for this virtual Backup router. You can specify a value from 3 through 254.
The default is 100.
The track-priority value option changes the track port priority of a Backup router. You can specify a value from 1 through 254. The
default is 5.
NOTE
You also can use the enable command to activate the conguration. This command does the same thing as the activate
command.
Additional VRRP and VRRP-E parameter
conguration
You can modify the following VRRP and VRRP-E parameters on an individual VRID basis. These parameters apply to both protocols:
• Authentication type (if the interfaces on which you congure the VRID use authentication)
• Router type (Owner or Backup)
NOTE
For VRRP, change the router type only if you have moved the real IP address from one router to another or you accidentally
congured the IP address Owner as a Backup.For VRRP-E, the router type is always Backup. You cannot change the type to
Owner.
• Suppression of RIP advertisements on Backup routes for the backed-up interface
• Hello interval
• Dead interval
• Backup Hello messages and message timer (Backup advertisement)
• Track port
• Track priority
• Backup preempt mode
• Timer scale
• VRRP-E slow start timer
• VRRP-E extension for server virtualization (short-path forwarding)
