Address (Vrrp) - Cisco Nexus 3548 Command Reference Manual

address (VRRP)

address (VRRP)
To add a single, primary IP address to a virtual router, use the address command. To remove an IP
address from a virtual router, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description
ip-address
secondary
Command Default None
Command Modes VRRP configuration mode
Command History Release
5.0(3)A1(1)
Usage Guidelines You can configure one virtual router IP address for a virtual router. If the configured IP address is the
same as the interface IP address, this switch automatically owns the IP address. You can configure an
IPv4 address only.
The master VRRP router drops the packets addressed to the virtual router's IP address because the virtual
router is only intended as a next-hop router to forward packets. In NX-OS devices, some applications
require that packets addressed to the virtual router's IP address be accepted and delivered. By using the
secondary option to the virtual router IPv4 address, the VRRP router will accept these packets when it
is the master.
This command requires the LAN Base Services license.
Examples This example shows how to configure a virtual router IP address:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 2/1
switch(config-if)# no switchport
switch(config-if)# vrrp 250
switch(config-if-vrrp)# address 10.0.0.10
This example shows how to remove all the IP addresses (primary and secondary) using a single
command:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 2/1
switch(config-if)# no switchport
switch(config-if)# vrrp 250
