Configuring GLBP
Enabling a GLBP Group
You can configure the virtual IP address on an interface to enable the GLBP group. You must configure
each gateway in the GLBP group with the same group number. The GLBP member can learn all other
required parameters from another GLBP member.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you are in the correct VDC (or use the switchto vdc command).
Enable the GLBP feature (see the “Enabling the GLBP Feature” section on page 18-7).
