Version Description
7.4.1.0 Introduced support for telnetting to the VRRP group IP address assigned using this
command.
6.2.1.1 Introduced on the E-Series.
Usage Information
The VRRP group only becomes active and sends VRRP packets when a virtual IP address is configured. When you
delete the virtual address, the VRRP group stops sending VRRP packets.
A system message appears after you enter or delete the virtual-address command.
To guarantee that a VRRP group becomes MASTER, configure the VRRP group’s virtual address with the same
IP address as the interface’s primary IP address and change the priority of the VRRP group to 255.
You can ping the virtual addresses configured in all VRRP groups.
vrrp delay minimum
Set the delay time for VRRP initialization after an interface comes up.

Usage Information
This command applies to a single interface. When used with the vrrp delay reload CLI, the later timer rules
the VRRP enabling. For example, if vrrp delay reload is 600 and the vrrp delay minimum is 300:
When the system reloads, VRRP waits 600 seconds (10 minutes) to bring up VRRP on all interfaces that are
up and configured for VRRP.
When an interface comes up, whether as part of a system reload or an interface reload, the system waits 300
seconds (5 minutes) to bring up VRRP on that interface.
