VRRP General Configuration
To display the following form, select Layer 3 > Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol > General.
The following table describes the VRRP General Configuration controls:
Table 156 VRRP General Configuration controls
Control
Descriptions
VRRP Processing Enabled?
Globally enables or disables VRRP processing. The default is disabled.
VRRP virtual router tracking
increment (0-254)
Defines the priority increment value (0 through 254) for virtual routers in master mode
detected on this switch. The default value is 2.
VRRP IP interface tracking
increment (0-254)
Defines the priority increment value (0 through 254) for active IP interfaces detected on
this switch. The default value is 2.
VRRP VLAN switch port tracking
increment (0-254)
Defines the priority increment value (0 through 254) for active ports on the virtual
router‘s VLAN. The default value is 2.
VRRP Virtual Router Group Configuration
Virtual Router Identifier (1-255)
Assigns a numeric identifier to the virtual router group.
IP interface (1-255)
Defines the IP interface associated with the virtual router group.
Enabled?
Enables or disables the virtual router group. The default is disabled.
Priority (1-254)
Defines the election priority bias for this virtual router group. This can be any integer
between 1 and 254. The default value is 100.
During the master router election process, the routing device with the highest virtual
router priority number wins. If there is a tie, the device with the highest IP interface
address wins. If this virtual router‘s IP address (addr) is the same as the one used by
the IP interface, the priority for this virtual router will automatically be set to 255
(highest).
When priority tracking is used, this base priority value can be modified according to a
number of performance and operational criteria.
Advertisement Interval (1-255)
Defines the time interval between VRRP master advertisements. This can be any
integer between 1 and 255 seconds. The default is 1.
