Configuring additional VRRP and VRRP-E parameters
The ipv6-addr parameter specifies the IPv6 address of the router.
Configuration rules and feature limitations
for VRRP-E
Consider the following rules when configuring VRRP-E:
•
The interfaces of all routers in a virtual router must be in the same IP subnet.
•
The IP address assigned to the virtual router cannot be configured on any of the Brocade
devices.
•
The Hello interval must be set to the same value on all the Brocade devices.
•
The Dead interval must be set to the same value on all the Brocade devices.
•
The track priority for a virtual router must be lower than the VRRP-E priority.
•
The same VRID must not be used across IPv6 VRRP-E and IPv4 VRRP-E if they are in the same
broadcast domain.
•
Hitless switchover is not supported.
NOTE
If you disable VRRP-E, the Brocade device removes all the configuration information for the disabled
protocol from the running configuration. Moreover, when you save the configuration to the startup
configuration after disabling the protocol, all configuration information for the disabled protocol is
removed from the startup configuration.
Configuring additional VRRP and VRRP-E parameters
You can modify the following VRRP and VRRP-E parameters on each individual virtual router. These
parameters apply to both protocols:
•
Authentication type (if the interfaces on which you configure the virtual router use
authentication)
•
Backup priority
•
Suppression of RIP advertisements on Backup routes for the backed up interface
•
Hello interval
•
Dead interval
•
Backup Hello messages and message timer (Backup advertisement)
•
Track port
•
Track priority
•
Backup preempt mode
•
Master Router Abdication and Reinstatement
•
VRRP-Extended Slow Start
•
VRRP-Extended Scale Timer
•
