Usage
Information
The VRRP group only becomes active and sends VRRP packets when a virtual IP address is
configured. When you delete the virtual address, the VRRP group stops sending VRRP packets.
A system message appears after you enter or delete the virtual-address command.
To guarantee that a VRRP group becomes MASTER, configure the VRRP group’s virtual address with
the same IP address as the interface’s primary IP address and change the priority of the VRRP group to
255.
You can ping the virtual addresses configured in all VRRP groups.
vrrp delay minimum
Set the delay time for VRRP initialization after an interface comes up.
