Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol
VRRP Examples
This section provides the configuration syntax for the two VRRP networks discussed in this chapter.
Configuring the Simple VRRP Network
The following illustration shows the simple VRRP network described in Figure 27.
Figure 29: Simple VRRP network
Switch A
Switch A = Master
VRID = 1
Virtual router IP address = 192.168.1.3
MAC address = 00-00-5E-00-01-01
Priority = 255
192.168.1.3
The configuration commands for switch A are as follows:
configure vlan vlan1 ipaddress 192.168.1.3/24
configure vrrp vlan vlan1 vrid 1
configure vrrp vlan vlan1 vrid 1 prioirty 255
configure vrrp vlan vlan1 vrid 1 add 192.168.1.3
enable vrrp
The configuration commands for switch B are as follows:
configure vlan vlan1 ipaddress 192.168.1.5/24
configure vrrp vlan vlan1 vrid 1
configure vrrp vlan vlan1 vrid 1 add 192.168.1.3
enable vrrp

Switch B
Switch B = Backup
VRID = 1
Virtual router IP address = 192.168.1.3
MAC address = 00-00-5E-00-01-01
Priority = 100
192.168.1.5
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.3
