23.5.2 Two Subnets Example

The following figure depicts an example in which two switches share the network traffic.
Hosts in the two network groups use different default gateways. Each switch is configured to
backup a virtual router using VRRP.

You wish to configure switch A as the master router for virtual router VR1 and as a backup for
virtual router VR2. On the other hand, switch B is the master for VR2 and a backup for VR1.

Figure 86 VRRP Configuration Example: Two Virtual Router Network

Keeping the VRRP configuration in example 1 for virtual router VR1 (refer to

Section 23.5.2

on page 154

), you need to configure the VRRP Configuration screen for virtual router VR2

on each switch. Configure the VRRP parameters on the ES-4024As as shown in the figures
below.
