In the table in the Wizard dialog, select a port row and enter the virtual
router ID in the VRID row. You can configure up to 8 virtual routers per
interface.
Click on “Continue”.
Under “Edit entry” in the “Basic configuration” frame, enter:
– the IP address of the virtual router
– the VRRP priority
– the type of authentication
– the key for the authentication
– the preempt delay
– the advertisement interval.
Select the preempt mode if you require.
Switch on the operation of VRRP.
If you want
– switching times of less than 3 s,
– the routers to use Unicasts to communicate with each other,
– to set up domains or
– to send link-down notifications,
you activate the “HiVRRP” field.
In the “HiVRRP” frame, enter:
– the “Advertisement Interval”
– the “Destination Address”. The HiVRRP destination address is the
IP address of the partner HiVRRP router.
– the IP address of the second router to which the link-down
notifications are sent. This function can be used when the virtual
router consists of two VRRP routers.
– the domain ID
– the domain role
Click on “Finished” to transfer the VRRP router interface into the
VRRP router interface table
or
Click on “Continue” to assign tracking objects to the virtual router
under “Tracking”. If a tracking object changes to the “down” status, the
VRRP priority is decremented.
Select an existing tracking entry and click “Add”. You can add up to
eight tracking objects. Make sure that the sum of the decrements of all
the assigned tracking entries is less than the VRRP priority of this
VRRP interface.
Note: As the IP address owner has the fixed VRRP priority 255 by
definition, the VRRP tracking function requires the IP addresses of the
VRRP router interfaces to differ from the virtual router IP address.
