Usage Guidelines
The advertisements being sent by the master virtual router communicate the state and priority of the current
master virtual router.
The vrrp timers advertise command configures the time between successive advertisement packets and the
time before other routers declare the master router to be down. Routers or access servers on which timer values
are not configured can learn timer values from the master router. The timers configured on the master router
always override any other timer settings. All routers in a VRRP group must use the same timer values. If the
same timer values are not set, the devices in the VRRP group will not communicate with each other and any
misconfigured device will change its state to master.
