CHAPTER 84
VRRP Commands
This chapter explains how to use commands to configure the Virtual Router Redundancy
Protocol (VRRP) on the Switch.
84.1 VRRP Overview
VRRP is a protocol that allows you to configure redundant router connections. The protocol
reduces downtime in case of a single link failure. Multiple routers are connected and one is
elected as the master router. If the master router fails, then one of the backup routers takes over
the routing function within a routing domain.
