The backup command specifies that this router is a VRRP-E Backup for virtual router VRID1. The IP
address entered with the ip-address VRRP-E command is the same IP address as the one entered
when configuring Router1. In this case, the IP address cannot also exist on Router2, but the
interface on which you are configuring the virtual router Backup must have an IP address in the
same subnet. By entering the same IP address as the one associated with this virtual router on the
Owner, you are configuring the Backup to back up the address, but you are not duplicating the
address.
NOTE
When you configure a Backup router, the router interface on which you are configuring the virtual
router must have a real IP address that is in the same subnet as the address associated with the
virtual router by the Owner. However, the address cannot be the same.
The priority parameter establishes the router’s VRRP-E priority in relation to the other VRRP-E
routers in this virtual router. The track-priority parameter specifies the new VRRP-E priority that the
router receives for this virtual router if the interface goes down. Refer to
The activate command activates the virtual router configuration on this interface. The interface
does not provide backup service for the virtual IP address until you activate the VRRP-E
configuration. Alternatively, you can use the enable command. The activate and enable commands
do the same thing.

VRRP-E example for IPv6
To implement the IPv6 VRRP-E configuration, configure the VRRP routers as shown in the following
sections.
Configuring router1
To configure VRRP Router1, enter the following commands.
Brocade(config)# ipv6 router vrrp-extended
Brocade(config)# interface ethernet 1/6
Brocade(config-if-e10000-1/6)# ipv6 address 1414:1414:1414::3/64
Brocade(config-if-e10000-1/6)# ipv6 vrrp-extended vrid 1
Brocade(config-if-e10000-1/6-vrid-1)# ipv6-address 1414:1414:1414::45
Brocade(config-if-e10000-1/6-vrid-1)# activate
