Virtual Router Configuration
598
G8332 Command Reference for ENOS 8.4
These commands are used for configuring virtual routers for this switch. A virtual
router is defined by its virtual router ID and an IP address. On each VRRP‐capable
routing device participating in redundancy for this virtual router, a virtual router
will be configured to share the same virtual router ID and IP address.
Virtual routers are disabled by default.

VRRP Virtual Router Configuration Options
Command Syntax and Usage
virtualrouter <1‐128> address <IP address>
Defines the IP address for this virtual router using dotted decimal notation.
This is used in conjunction with the preceding VRID to configure the same
virtual router on each participating VRRP device.
The default address is 0.0.0.0.
Command mode: Router VRRP
[no] virtualrouter <1‐128> enable
Enables or disables this virtual router.
Command mode: Router VRRP
[no] virtualrouter <1‐128> fastadvertise
Enables or disables Fast Advertisements. When enabled, the VRRP master
advertisements interval is calculated in units of centiseconds, instead of
seconds. For example, if adver is set to 1 and fadver is enabled, master
advertisements are sent every 10 miliseconds.
When you disable fast advertisement, the advertisement interval is set to the
default value of 1 second. To support Fast Advertisements, set the interval
between 20‐100 centiseconds.
Command mode: Router VRRP
virtualrouter <1‐128> interface <IP interface number>
Selects a switch IP interface. If the IP interface has the same IP address as the
address option, this switch is considered the "owner" of the defined virtual
router. An owner has a special priority of 255 (highest) and will always assume
the role of master router, even if it must pre‐empt another virtual router which
has assumed master routing authority. This pre‐emption occurs even if the
preem option below is disabled.
The default value is 1.
