The following table describes the VRRP General Configuration controls:
Table 163 VRRP General Configuration controls
Control Descriptions
VRRP Processing Enabled? Globally enables or disables VRRP processing.
VRRP virtual router tracking
increment (0-254)
Defines the priority increment value (1 through 254) for virtual routers in master mode
detected on this switch. The default value is 2.
VRRP IP interface tracking
increment (0-254)
Defines the priority increment value (1 through 254) for active IP interfaces detected on
this switch. The default value is 2.
VRRP VLAN switch port tracking
increment (0-254)
Defines the priority increment value (1 through 254) for active ports on the virtual router’s
VLAN. The default value is 2.
VRRP Virtual Router Group Configuration
Virtual Router Identifier (1-255) Assigns a numeric identifier to the virtual router group.
IP interface (1-255) Defines the IP interface associated with the virtual router group.
Enabled? Enables or disables the virtual router group.
Priority (1-254) Defines the election priority bias for this virtual router group. This can be any integer
between 1 and 254. The default value is 100.
During the master router election process, the routing device with the highest virtual router
priority number wins. If there is a tie, the device with the highest IP interface address
wins. If this virtual router’s IP address (
addr) is the same as the one used by the IP
interface, the priority for this virtual router will automatically be set to 255 (highest).
When priority tracking is used (
/cfg/l3/vrrp/track or
/cfg/l3/vrrp/vr #/track
), this base priority value can be modified according
to a number of performance and operational criteria.
Advertisement Interval (1-255) Defines the time interval between VRRP master advertisements. This can be any integer
between 1 and 255 seconds. The default is 1.
