Click “Continue”.
Under “Edit entry” in the “Basic configuration” frame, enter:

you activate the “HiVRRP” field.
In the “HiVRRP” frame, enter:

IP address of the partner HiVRRP router.

tracking objects. Ascertain that the sum of the decrements of all the
assigned tracking entries is less than the VRRP priority of this VRRP
interface.
