xStack DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual

create vrrp vrid

Purpose

To create a VRRP router on the Switch.

Syntax

vrid <vrid 1-255> ipif <ipif_name 12> ipaddress <ipaddr> {state

 

[enable disable] priority <int 1-254> advertisement_interval

 

<int 1-255> preempt [true false] critical_ip <ipaddr>

 

critical_ip_state [enable disable]}

Description

This command is used to create a VRRP interface on the Switch.

Parameters

vrid <vrid 1-255>- Enter a value between 1 and 255 to uniquely

 

identify this VRRP group on the Switch. All routers participating in

 

this group must be assigned the same vrid value. This value MUST

 

be different from other VRRP groups set on the Switch.

 

ipif <ipif_name 12> - Enter the name of a previously configured IP

 

interface that you wish to create a VRRP entry for. This IP interface

 

must be assigned to a VLAN on the Switch.

 

ipaddress <ipaddr> - Enter the IP address that will be assigned to

 

the VRRP router. This IP address is also the default gateway that

 

will be statically assigned to end hosts and must be set for all routers

 

that participate in this group.

 

state [enable disable] - Used to enable and disable the VRRP

 

router on the Switch.

 

priority <int 1-254>- Enter a value between 1 and 254 to indicate the

 

router priority. The VRRP Priority value may determine if a higher

 

priority VRRP router overrides a lower priority VRRP router. A higher

 

priority will increase the probability that this router will become the

 

Master router of the group. A lower priority will increase the

 

probability that this router will become the backup router. VRRP

 

routers that are assigned the same priority value will elect the

 

highest physical IP address as the Master router. The default value

 

is 100. (The value of 255 is reserved for the router that owns the IP

 

address associated with the virtual router and is therefore set

 

automatically.)

 

advertisement_interval <int 1-255> - Enter a time interval value, in

 

seconds, for sending VRRP message packets. This value must be

 

consistent with all routers participating within the same VRRP group.

 

The default is 1 second.

 

preempt [true false] - This entry will determine the behavior of

 

backup routers within the VRRP group by controlling whether a

 

higher priority backup router will preempt a lower priority Master

 

router. A true entry, along with having the backup router’s priority set

 

higher than the masters priority, will set the backup router as the

 

Master router. A false entry will disable the backup router from

 

becoming the Master router. This setting must be consistent with all

 

routers participating within the same VRRP group. The default

 

setting is true.

 

critical_ip <ipaddr> - Enter the IP address of the physical device that

 

will provide the most direct route to the Internet or other critical

 

network connections from this virtual router. This must be a real IP

 

address of a real device on the network. If the connection from the

 

virtual router to this IP address fails, the virtual router will be disabled

 

automatically. A new master will be elected from the backup routers

 

participating in the VRRP group. Different critical IP addresses may

 

be assigned to different routers participating in the VRRP group, and

 

can therefore define multiple routes to the Internet or other critical
