hello-interval
Specifies the hello-interval configuration.
Specifies the hello-interval in milliseconds or seconds for IPv4 VRRP and IPv6 VRRP.
Syntax hello-interval [seconds]
hello-interval [milliseconds]
hello-interval msec [milliseconds]
[no] hello-interval
Command Default The hello-interval is not set.
Parameters seconds
Specifies the hello-interval in seconds from 1 through 40 seconds for IPv4 VRRP, IPv4
VRRPv3, VRRP-E, and IPv6 VRRP-E. The default is 1 second.
milliseconds
Specifies the hello-interval in seconds from 1 through 84 seconds for IPv4 VRRP, VRRP-E,
and IPv6 VRRP-E and 1 through 40 seconds for IPv4 VRRPv3. The default is 1 second.
Modes VRRP virtual router ID configuration.
Usage Guidelines IPv4 VRRPv2 supports the hello-interval configuration in seconds, while IPv6 VRRP supports this
configuration in milliseconds; both use the CLI hello-interval xxx. However IPv4 VRRPv3 supports
both the seconds and milliseconds configuration using the hello-interval xxx and hello-interval msec
xxx commands respectively.
Examples The following example configures the hello-interval on IPv4 VRRPv2 to 20 seconds.
device Router1(config)# interface ethernet 1/6
device Router1(config-if-1/6)# ipv4 vrrp vrid 1
device Router1(config-if-1/6-vrid-1)# hello-interval 20
The following example configures the hello-interval on IPv4 VRRPv3 to 200 milliseconds.
device Router1(config)# interface ethernet 1/6
device Router1(config-if-1/6)# ipv4 vrrp vrid 1
device Router1(config-if-1/6-vrid-1)# hello-interval msec 200
