•auto—the port is placed in unauthorized state, then authentication is initiated.

•force auth—the port is placed in authorized state, and authentication is not required.

Table 179 Operations-Level VRRP commands

Command	Description

router vrrp backup <1-256>	Forces the specified master virtual router on this switch into backup mode.
	This is generally used for passing master control back to a preferred switch
	once the preferred switch has been returned to service after a failure. When
	this command is executed, the current master gives up control and initiates a
	new election by temporarily advertising its own priority level as 0 (lowest).
	After the new election, the virtual router forced into backup mode by this
	command will resume master control in the following cases:
	• This switch owns the virtual router (the IP addresses of the virtual router
	and its IP interface are the same)
	• This switch’s virtual router has a higher priority and preemption is
	enabled.
	• There are no other virtual routers available to take master control.
	Command Mode: Privileged EXEC
