Examples
Thisexampleshowshowtoconfigureavirtualrouteraddressof182.127.62.1onVLAN1,VRID1,
andtosettherouterconnectedtotheVLANviathisinterfaceasthemaster:
Matrix>Router(config)#router vrrp

priority
UsethiscommandtosetapriorityvalueforaVRRProuter.
Syntax

Usage
The“no”formofthiscommandclearstheVRRPpriorityconfiguration.
vlanvlan‐id SpecifiesthenumberoftheVLANonwhichtoconfigureVRRPpriority.

vrid.Valid
valuesarefrom1to254,withthehighestvaluesettingthehighest
