Configuring Router2
To configure Router2, enter the following commands.
Router1(config)#router vrrp-extended
Router1(config)#interface ethernet 5
Router1(config-if-5)#ip address 10.53.5.3/24
Router1(config-if-5)#ip vrrp-extended vrid 1
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#backup priority 100 track-priority 20
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#track-port ethernet 2
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#ip-address 10.53.5.254
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#activate
VRRP router 1 for this interface is activating
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#exit
Router1(config)#interface ethernet 5
Router1(config-if-5)#ip vrrp-extended vrid 2
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#backup priority 110 track-priority 20
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#track-port ethernet 4
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#ip-address 10.53.5.253
Router1(config-if-5-vrid-1)#activate
VRRP router 2 for this interface is activating
The backup command specifies that this router is a VRRPE Backup for virtual router VRID1. The IP
address entered with the ip-address 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 VRID Backup must have an IP address in the same subnet. By
entering the same IP address as the one associated with this VRID 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 VRID
must have a real IP address that is in the same subnet as the address associated with the VRID by
the Owner. However, the address cannot be the same.
The priority parameter establishes the router VRRPE priority in relation to the other VRRPE routers
in this virtual router. The track-priority parameter specifies the new VRRPE priority that the router
receives for this VRID if the interface goes down. Refer to
“Track ports and track priority” on
page 867.
The activate command activates the VRID configuration on this interface. The interface does not
provide backup service for the virtual IP address until you activate the VRRPE configuration.
Alternatively, you can use the enable command. The activate and enable commands do the same
thing.
