Concept Guide
If the next-hop IP in a static route VRF statement is VRRP IP of another VRF, this static route does not get installed on the VRRP master.
VRF supports some routing protocols only on the default VRF (default-vrf) instance. Table 1 displays the software features supported in
VRF and whether they are supported on all VRF instances or only the default VRF.
NOTE: To congure a router ID in a non-default VRF, congure at least one IP address in both the default as well as the non-
default VRF.
