Basic VRRP parameter configuration
• The IP addresses associated with the VRID must already be configured on the router that will
be the Owner.
• An IP address associated with the VRID must be on only one router.
• The Hello interval must be set to the same value on the Owner and Backup routers for the
VRID.
• The dead interval must be set to the same value on the Owner and Backup routers for the
VRID.
• The track priority on a router must be lower than the router VRRP priority. Also, the track
priority on the Owner must be higher than the track priority on the Backup routers.
NOTE
When you use the router vrrp command or the ipv6 router vrrp command to enter the VRRP
configuration mode, the command prompt does not change and results in the following general
configuration command prompt: Brocade
(config)#
. This differs from entering the VRRP extended
mode, where entering the router vrrp-extended command results in a command prompt such as the
following:
(config-VRRP-E-router)#.
For IPv6 VRRP extended mode, when entering the ipv6
router vrrp-extended command, this results in a command prompt such as the following:
(config-ipv6-VRRP-E-router)#.
Configuring the Owner for IPv4 VRRP
To configure the VRRP Owner router for IPv4, enter the following commands on the router.
Brocade Router1(config)#router vrrp
Brocade Router1(config)#interface ethernet 1/1/6
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6)#ip-address 192.168.5.1
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6)#ip vrrp vrid 1
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6-vrid-1)#owner
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6-vrid-1)#ip-address 192.168.5.1
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6-vrid-1)#activate
Syntax: [no] router vrrp
Syntax: [no] ip-address ip-addr
Syntax: [no] ip vrrp vrid num
Syntax: [no] owner [track-priority value]
Syntax: [no] activate
The ip-addr variable specifies the IPv4 address of the Owner router.
The IP address you assign to the Owner must be an IP address configured on an interface that
belongs to the virtual router.
The num variable specifies the virtual router ID.
The track-priority value option changes the track-port priority for this interface and the VRID from
the default (2) to a value from 1 through the maximum VRID supported by the device.
Configuring the Owner for IPv6 VRRP
To configure the VRRP Owner router for IPv6, enter the following commands on the router.
