Make sure you click Apply to save and apply the change. Activating a VRRP group

must have a static IP address and be connected to the same subnet as the group’s

 

 

interface on the other ZyWALL.

 

 

To add a VRRP group, click the Add icon at the top of the column. The VRRP

 

 

Group Add/Edit screen appears.

 

 

To edit a VRRP group, click the Edit icon next to the group. The VRRP Group

Server Port

Enter the port number that the ZyWALL you specified in the Server Address field

number in the backups.

 

 

 

 

Password

password is different than the one that is used for authentication in the VRRP

 

 

group. Every ZyWALL in the virtual router must use the same password. If you

 

 

leave this field blank in the master ZyWALL, it does not allow any backup ZyWALLs
