R21xx-HP FlexFabric 11900 High Availability Configuration Guide

VRRP group 1—Router A is the master. Router B and Router C are the backups.
VRRP group 2—Router B is the master. Router A and Router C are the backups.
VRRP group 3—Router C is the master. Router A and Router B are the backups.
To implement load sharing among Router A, Router B, and Router C, hosts on the subnet must be
configured with the virtual IP addresses of VRRP group 1, 2, and 3 as default gateways, respectively.
When you configure them, make sure that each router is assigned an appropriate priority in each VRRP
group so that each router can take the expected role in each group.

Creating a VRRP group and assigning a virtual IP address
A VRRP group can operate correctly after you create it and assign at least one virtual IP address to it. You
can configure multiple virtual IP addresses for the VRRP group on an interface that connects to multiple
subnets for router backup on different subnets.
