VRRP router interface parameters

VRRP parameters are configured on a router interface with two contexts, owner or non-owner. The status is specified when the VRRP configuration is created. When configured as owner, the virtual router instance owns the backed up IP addresses. All other virtual router instances participating in this message domain must have the same VRID configured and cannot be configured as owner.

For IPv4, up to 4 virtual routers IDs (VRIDs) can be configured on a router interface. For IPv6, only one virtual router instance can be configured on a router interface.

VRRP parameters configured on a router interface must include the following:

VRID
backup IP addresses

Example

The following is a sample router interface owner and non-owner VRRP configuration output.

A:SR4>config>router# info
#------------------------------------------
echo "IP Configuration "
#------------------------------------------
        interface "system"
            address 10.10.0.4/32
        exit
        interface "test1"
            address 10.10.14.1/24
            


        exit
        interface "test2"
            address 10.10.10.23/24
            vrrp 1 owner
                backup 10.10.10.23
              
                authentication-key "testabc"
