Quick Steps for Creating a Virtual Router

1 Create a virtual router. Specify a virtual router ID (VRID) and a VLAN ID. For example:

The VLAN must already be created on the switch. For information about creating VLANs, see
Chapter 4, "Configuring VLANs."
2 Configure an IP address for the virtual router.
-> vrrp 6 4 ip 10.10.2.3
3
Repeat steps 1 and 2 on all of the physical switches that will participate in backing up the address(es)
associated with the virtual router.

Enable VRRP on each switch.
-> vrrp 6 4 enable
