Setting a Virtual MAC Address for a Virtual Router

This feature allows you to set a virtual MAC (VMAC) address for a virtual router by using one of three options. The implementation continues to support the default selection of a VMAC through the method outlined in the VRRP protocol specification. All three modes are useful for Virtual LAN deployments, which forward traffic based on the VLAN address and destination MAC address.

„The Interface mode selects the interface hardware MAC address as the VMAC.

„In the Static mode, you specify fully the VMAC address.

„In the extended mode, the system dynamically calculates three bytes of the interface hardware MAC address to extend its range of uniqueness.

To set the virtual MAC address

1.Click VRRP for IPv6 under Configuration > System Configuration > IPv6 Configuration > Router Services in the tree view.

2.You can set the VMAC option for an interface on which you enable VRRP or Monitored Circuit

a.To enable VRRP, click the VRRPv3 button next to the interface for which to enable VRRP, and then click Apply.

To specify the virtual router ID for the virtual router used to back up the local interface address(es) of the interface, enter a value of from 1 to 255 in the Own VRID text box. Click Apply.

To specify the virtual router ID for the virtual router used to back up IP address(es) of another system, enter a value of from 1 to 255 in the Backup Router with VRID edit box. Click Apply.

A Backup Address text box appears that allows you to add an IP address for this virtual router.

b.To enable Monitored Circuit, click the Monitored Circuit button next to the interface for which to enable Monitored Circuit, and then click Apply.

To specify the virtual router ID for the virtual router to be used to back up the local interface address(es), enter a value of from 1 to 255 in the Create Virtual Router text box. Click Apply.
