Basic VRRP parameter configuration
NOTE
You must first configure the ipv6 unicast-routing command at the global configuration level to
enable IPv6 VRRP on the router.
Brocade Router1(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing
Brocade Router1(config)# ipv6 router vrrp
Brocade Router1(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/6
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6)# ipv6-address 3013::1/64
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6)# ipv6 vrrp vrid 1
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# owner
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# ipv6-address 3013::1
Brocade Router1(config-if-e10000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# activate
VRRP router 1 for this interface is activating
Syntax: [no] ipv6 unicast-routing
Syntax: [no] ipv6 router vrrp
Syntax: [no] ipv6-address ipv6-address
Syntax: [no] ipv6 vrrp vrid num
Syntax: [no] owner
Syntax: [no] activate
The num variable specifies the virtual router ID.
The ipv6-addr variable specifies the IPv6 address of the Owner router.
The IP address you assign to the Owner must be an IP address configured on an interface that
belongs to the virtual router.
The ipv6 router vrrp command enables IPv6 VRRP v3 routing on the interface. All IPv6 VRRP router
instances for a VRID are also enabled on the interface.
When the no ipv6 router vrrp command is enabled, all IPv6 VRRP router instances for a specific
VRID are deleted from the interface, and the running configuration is lost when writing to flash. You
must enable the write memory command to save your configuration. The following message is
displayed when the no ipv6 router vrrp command is enabled.
Router1(config)#no ipv6 router vrrp
ipv6 router vrrp is disabled. All vrrp (ipv6) config data will be lost when
writing to flash!!
Configuring a Backup for IPv4 VRRP
To configure the VRRP Backup router for IPv4, enter the following commands.
Brocade Router2(config)#router vrrp
Brocade Router2(config)#interface ethernet 1/1/5
Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5)#ip-address 192.168.5.3
Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5)#ip vrrp vrid 1
Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)#backup
Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)#advertise backup
Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)#ip-address 192.168.5.1
Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)#activate
VRRP router 2 for interface is activating
Syntax: [no] router vrrp
