Chapter 5: Ethernet Interface Commands

Efficient Networks® Router family

 

Command Line Interface Guide

 

 

NOTE:

The password must be the same for every router in the Virtual Router, that is, for every router in the LAN with the same VRID. For example, if a VRRP interface in routers A, B, and C has the VRID 7, routers A, B, and C must all specify the same password for VRID 7.

NOTE:

This command takes effect immediately, but you must save the change if it is to persist after you restart the interface or reboot the router.
