Advanced Configuration and Management Guide

Configuration Rules for SRP

•Virtual interfaces cannot be assigned as track ports.

•The keep-alive-time value must be set to the same value on both the active and standby router when both routers are connected to the same sub-net.

•The router-dead-time parameter must be set to the same value on both the active and standby routers when both routing switches are connected to the same sub-net.

Enable SRP on the Routing Switch

Before configuring SRP to provide redundancy for a routing switch, you must enable the feature on the routing switch.

USING THE CLI

To enable SRP on a routing switch, enter the following command:

HP9300(config)# router srp

USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE

To enable SRP on a routing switch:

1.Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration dialog is displayed.

2.Select the Enable radio button next to SRP.

3.Click the Apply button to apply the change to the device’s running-config file.

4.Select the Save link at the bottom of the dialog. Select Yes when prompted to save the configuration change to the startup-config file on the device’s flash memory.

NOTE: All SRP configurations are implemented using a single configuration panel of the Web management interface. Given this, all other configuration steps, other than enabling the feature, are shown in a separate section at the end of this chapter rather than interspersed with CLI examples.
