VRRP Virtual Router Priority Tracking configuration

Command: /cfg/l3/vrrp/vr <1-255>/track

[VRRP Virtual	Router 1 Priority Tracking Menu]
vrs	- Enable/disable tracking master virtual routers
ifs	- Enable/disable tracking		other interfaces
ports	-	Enable/disable tracking	VLAN	switch ports
cur	-	Display current VRRP virtual		router configuration

NOTE: This menu is available only on the GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch.

This menu is used for modifying the priority system used when electing the master router from a pool of virtual routers. Various tracking criteria can be used to bias the election results. Each time one of the tracking criteria is met, the priority level for the virtual router is increased by an amount defined through the VRRP Tracking Menu.

Criteria are tracked dynamically, continuously updating virtual router priority levels when enabled. If the virtual router preemption option is enabled, this virtual router can assume master routing authority when its priority level rises above that of the current master.

Some tracking criteria (vrs, ifs, and ports below) apply to standard virtual routers, otherwise called “virtual interface routers”. A virtual server router is defined as any virtual router whose IP address (addr) is the same as any configured virtual server IP address.

The following table describes the Virtual Router Priority Tracking Configuration Menu options.

Table 152 Virtual Router Priority Tracking Configuration Menu options

Command	Description
vrs disableenable	When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each
	virtual router in master mode on this switch. This is useful for making sure that
	traffic for any particular client/server pairing are handled by the same switch,
	increasing routing and load balancing efficiency. This command is disabled by
	default.
ifs disableenable	When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each
	other IP interface active on this switch. An IP interface is considered active
	when there is at least one active port on the same VLAN. This helps elect the
	virtual routers with the most available routes as the master. This command is
	disabled by default.
ports disableenable	When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each
	active port on the same VLAN. A port is considered “active” if it has a link and
	is forwarding traffic. This helps elect the virtual routers with the most available
	ports as the master. This command is disabled by default.
cur	Displays the current configuration for priority tracking for this virtual router.

VRRP Virtual Router Group configuration

Command: /cfg/l3/vrrp/group

[VRRP Virtual	Router Group Menu]
track	- Priority Tracking Menu
vrid	- Set virtual router ID
if	- Set interface number
prio	- Set renter priority
adver	- Set advertisement interval
preem	- Enable/disable preemption
ena	- Enable virtual router
dis	- Disable virtual router
del	- Delete virtual router
cur	- Display current VRRP virtual router configuration

NOTE: This menu is available only on the GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch.

The Virtual Router Group menu is used for associating all virtual routers into a single logical virtual router, which forces all virtual routers on the switch to either be master or backup as a group. A virtual router is defined by its
