Configuring VRRP Interface State Tracking

Interface state tracking changes the priority of the virtual router based on the state of another interface
in the switch. When the tracked interface goes down or the IP address is removed, Cisco NX-OS assigns
the tracking priority value to the virtual router. When the tracked interface comes up and an IP address
is configured on this interface, Cisco NX-OS restores the configured priority to the virtual router (see
the"Configuring VRRP Priority" section on page
Cisco Nexus 3000 Series NX-OS Unicast Routing Configuration Guide, NX-OS Release 5.0(3)U1(1)
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enters interface configuration mode.
Configures the interface as a Layer 3 routed interface.
Creates a virtual router group.
Enables the VRRP group. Disabled by default.
Disables the preempt option and allows the master to remain
when a higher-priority backup appears.
Enables the VRRP group. Disabled by default.
(Optional) Displays a summary of VRRP information.
(Optional) Saves this configuration change.
