Vrrp Virtual Router Configuration - HP 445860-B21 - 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Command Reference Manual

VRRP Virtual Router configuration

Command: /cfg/l3/vrrp/vr <1-250>
[VRRP Virtual Router 1 Menu]
This menu is 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.
The following table describes the Virtual Router Configuration Menu options.

Description
Displays the VRRP Priority Tracking Menu for this virtual router. Tracking is a
proprietary extension to VRRP, used for modifying the standard priority system
used for electing the master router.
Defines the virtual router ID. This is used in conjunction with addr (below) to
define a virtual router on this switch. To create a pool of VRRP-enabled routing
devices which can provide redundancy to each other, each participating VRRP
device must be configured with the same virtual router: one that shares the same
vrid and addr combination.
The vrid for standard virtual routers (where the virtual router IP address is not the
same as any virtual server) can be any integer between 1 and 250. The default
value is 1.
All vrid values must be unique within the VLAN to which the virtual router's IP
interface belongs.
Defines the IP address for this virtual router using dotted decimal notation. This is
used in conjunction with the vrid (above) to configure the same virtual router on
each participating VRRP device. The default address is 0.0.0.0.
Selects a switch IP interface. If the IP interface has the same IP address as the
addr option above, 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 preempt another virtual router which has
assumed master routing authority. This preemption occurs even if the preem
option below is disabled. The default value is 1.
