Service Manual

For example, an interface (on which you enable VRRP) contains a primary IP address of 50.1.1.1/24 and a secondary IP
address of 60.1.1.1/24. The VRRP group (VRID 1) must contain virtual addresses belonging to either subnet 50.1.1.0/24 or
subnet 60.1.1.0/24, but not from both subnets (though Dell Networking OS allows the same).
If the virtual IP address and the interface’s primary/secondary IP address are the same, the priority on that VRRP group MUST
be set to 255. The interface then becomes the OWNER router of the VRRP group and the interface’s physical MAC address is
changed to that of the owner VRRP group’s MAC address.
If you congure multiple VRRP groups on an interface, only one of the VRRP Groups can contain the interface primary or
secondary IP address.
Conguring a Virtual IP Address
To congure a virtual IP address, use the following commands.
1. Congure a VRRP group.
INTERFACE mode
vrrp-group vrrp-id
The VRID range is from 1 to 255.
2. Congure virtual IP addresses for this VRID.
INTERFACE -VRID mode
virtual-address ip-address1 [...ip-address12]
The range is up to 12 addresses.
Examples of the Conguring and Verifying a Virtual IP Address
The following example shows how to congure a virtual IP address.
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1-vrid-111)#virtual-address 10.10.10.1
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1-vrid-111)#virtual-address 10.10.10.2
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1-vrid-111)#virtual-address 10.10.10.3
The following example shows how to verify a virtual IP address conguration.
NOTE: In the following example, the primary IP address and the virtual IP addresses are on the same subnet.
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1)#show conf
!
interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1/1
ip address 10.10.10.1/24
!
vrrp-group 111
priority 255
virtual-address
10.10.10.1
virtual-address 10.10.10.2
virtual-address 10.10.10.3
!
vrrp-group 222
no shutdown
The following example shows the same VRRP group (VRID 111) congured on multiple interfaces on dierent subnets.
