Configure VRRP on a Master Router

This example shows how to configure the 7000 Series Managed Switch to support VRRP. Router 1 will be
the default master router for the virtual route, and Router 2 will be the backup router.

CLI: Configuring VRRP on a Master Router

The following is an example of configuring VRRP on a 7000 Series Managed Switch acting as the master
router:
Enable routing for the switch. IP forwarding will then be enabled by default.
(Netgear Switch) #config
(Netgear Switch) (Config)#ip routing
Configure the IP addresses and subnet masks for the port that will participate in the protocol.
(Netgear Switch) (Config)#interface 1/0/2
(Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#routing
(Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip address 192.150.2.1 255.255.0.0
(Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#exit
Enable VRRP for the switch.
(Netgear Switch) (Config)#ip vrrp
Assign virtual router IDs to the port that will participate in the protocol.
(Netgear Switch) (Config)#interface 1/0/2
(Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip vrrp 20
Specify the IP address that the virtual router function will recognize. Note that the virtual IP address on port
1/0/2 is the same as the port's actual IP address, therefore this router will always be the VRRP master when
it is active. And the priority default is 255.
(Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip vrrp 20 ip 192.150.2.1
