Task 2: Configure Switch B
1. Configure client and server interfaces.
2. Configure the default gateways. Each default gateway points to a Layer 3 router.
3. Turn on VRRP and configure two Virtual Interface Routers.
/cfg/l3/if 1 (Select interface 1)
>> IP Interface 1# addr 192.168.1.101 (Define IP address for interface 1)
>> IP Interface 1# vlan 10 (Assign VLAN 10 to interface 1)
>> IP Interface 1# ena (Enable interface 1)
>> IP Interface 1# ..
>> Layer 3# if 2 (Select interface 2)
>> IP Interface 2# addr 192.168.2.100 (Define IP address for interface 2)
>> IP Interface 2# vlan 20 (Assign VLAN 20 to interface 2)
>> IP Interface 2# ena (Enable interface 2)
>> IP Interface 2# ..
>> Layer 3# if 3 (Select interface 3)
>> IP Interface 3# addr 10.0.1.101 (Define IP address for interface 3)
>> IP Interface 3# mask 255.255.255.0 (Define subnet mask for interface 3)
>> IP Interface 3# ena (Enable interface 3)
>> IP Interface 3# ..
>> Layer 3# if 4 (Select interface 4)
>> IP Interface 4# addr 10.0.2.100 (Define IP address for interface 4)
>> IP Interface 4# mask 255.255.255.0 (Define subnet mask for interface 4)
>> IP Interface 4# ena (Enable interface 4)
/cfg/l3/gw 1 (Select default gateway 1)
>> Default gateway 1# addr 192.168.2.1 (Point gateway to the first L3 router)
>> Default gateway 1# ena (Enable the default gateway)
>> Default gateway 1# ..
>> Layer 3# gw 2 (Select default gateway 2)
>> Default gateway 2# addr 192.168.1.1 (Point gateway to the second router)

>> VRRP Virtual Router 1# if 1 (Set interface 1)
>> VRRP Virtual Router 1# addr 192.168.1.200 (Define IP address)
>> VRRP Virtual Router 1# ena (Enable virtual router 1)
>> VRRP Virtual Router 1# .. (Enable virtual router 1)
>> Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol# vr 2 (Select virtual router 2)
>> VRRP Virtual Router 2# vrid 2 (Set VRID to 2)
>> VRRP Virtual Router 2# if 2 (Set interface 2)
