Usage
Information
You can configure both IPv4 and IPv6 virtual addresses simultaneously, but only one of each. Each time
this command is issued, it replaces the previously configured address of the same family, IPv4 or IPv6.
The no virtual-ip command takes an address/prefix-length argument, so that the desired address
only is removed. If you enter the no virtual-ip command without any specified address, then both
IPv4 and IPv6 virtual addresses are removed.
