Usage Information
The VRRP group only becomes active and sends VRRP packets when a link-local virtual IP address is
congured. When you delete the virtual address, the VRRP group stops sending VRRP packets.
When VRF microcode is not loaded in CAM, the VRID for a VRRP group is the same as the VRID number
congured with the vrrp-group or vrrp-ipv6-group command.
When VRF microcode is loaded in CAM, the VRID for a VRRP group is equal to 16 times the vrrp-
group or vrrp-ipv6-group vrid number plus the ip vrf vrf-id number. For example, if VRF
microcode is loaded and VRRP group 10 is congured in VRF 2, the VRID used for the VRRP group is (16
x 10) + 2, or 162. This VRID value is used in the lowest byte of the virtual MAC address of the VRRP
group and is also used for VRF routing.
NOTE: Congure the same VRID on neighboring routers (Dell Networking or non-Dell Networking)
in the same VRRP group in order for all routers to interoperate.
Related Commands virtual-address — assigns up to 12 virtual IP addresses per VRRP group.
