Configuring VRRP

Quick Steps for Configuring VRRP

1 Create a virtual router. Specify a virtual router ID (VRID) and a VLAN ID. For example:
-> vrrp 6 4
The VLAN must already be created on the switch. For information about creating VLANs, see
Chapter 4, "Configuring VLANs."
2 Typically, VRRP authentication should be set up with a password. For example:
-> vrrp 6 4 authenticate wwwtoe
3
Configure an IP address for the virtual router.
-> vrrp 6 4 ip 10.10.2.3
4 Repeat steps 1 through 3 on all of the physical switches that will participate in backing up the
address(es) associated with the virtual router. The authentication password must be the same on each
switch.
5 Enable VRRP on each switch.
-> vrrp 6 4 enable
