VRRPv3 provides address redundancy for both IPv4 and IPv6 router
addresses. VRRPv3 support is similar to VRRP support. Table 6-3 provides a
summary of the differences.
NOTE: Note the following:
• To enable VRRP on the device, use the
ip vrrp command. This command
enables VRRP (v2 or v3, whichever version is the configured version) and
makes it operational.
• A command is available to configure debugging for VRRP packets. For
information, see
debug ip vrrp .

The interval time used for sending VRRP
Advertisement packets is in seconds.
The interval time is in the order of
centiseconds.
VRRP MAC address format is 00-00-5E-
00-01-{VRID}
VRRP MAC address format for IPv6 VR
IP is 00-00-5E-00-02-{VRID}
