1.3.4 Creating Standby Group and Configuring Virtual IPv6 Address

You need to configure a virtual IPv6 address for a standby group when creating the
standby group. A VRRP standby group is created automatically when you specify the
first virtual IPv6 address for the standby group. If you specify a virtual IPv6 address for
the standby group later, the virtual IPv6 address is only added to the virtual IPv6
address list of the VRRP standby group.
I. Configuration prerequisites
Before creating standby group and configuring virtual IPv6 address, you should first
configure the IPv6 address of the interface and ensure that the virtual IPv6 address to
be configured is in the same network segment as the IPv6 address of the interface.
II. Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to create standby group and configure its virtual IPv6 address:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter the
specified interface
view
Create standby
group and
configure its
virtual IPv6
address
Caution:
The maximum number of standby groups on an interface and the maximum number
of virtual IPv6 addresses in a standby group vary by device.
A standby group is removed after you remove all the virtual IPv6 addresses in it. In
addition, configurations on that standby group no longer take effect.
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
vrrp ipv6 vrid
virtual-router-id
virtual-ip
virtual-address
[ link-local ]

Remarks

Required
No standby group is created by
default.
The first virtual IPv6 address of the
standby group must be a link local
address. Only one link local address
is allowed in a standby group, and
must be removed the last.
