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 VRRP priority in relation to the other VRRP routers in
this virtual router. The track-priority parameter specifies the new VRRP priority that the router
receives for this VRID if the interface goes down. Refer to “Track ports and track priority” on
page 715.
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 VRRP configuration.

VRRPE example
To implement the VRRPE configuration shown in Figure 114 on page 718, use the following CLI
method.
Configuring Router1
To configure VRRP Router1 in Figure 114 on page 718, enter the following commands.
Router1(config)# router vrrp-extended
Router1(config)# interface ethernet 6
Router1(config-if-6)# ip address 192.53.5.2/24
Router1(config-if-6)# ip vrrp-extended vrid 1
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# backup priority 110 track-priority 20
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# track-port ethernet 4
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# ip-address 192.53.5.254
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# activate
VRRP router 1 for this interface is activating
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# exit
Router1(config)# interface ethernet 6
Router1(config-if-6)# ip vrrp-extended vrid 2
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# backup priority 100 track-priority 20
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# track-port ethernet 4
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# ip-address 192.53.5.253
Router1(config-if-6-vrid-1)# activate
VRRP router 2 for this interface is activating
NOTE
The address you enter with the ip-address command cannot be the same as a real IP address
configured on the interface.
