Usage Guidelines

You can configure VRRP only if its state is disabled. Make sure that you configure at least one IP address before you attempt to enable a virtual router.

Examples

This example shows how to create a VRRP group:

switch# configure terminal

switch(config)# interface ethernet 2/1

switch(config-if)# no switchport

switch(config-if)# vrrp 7 

switch(config-if-vrrp)# 

This example shows how to create a VRRP group and configure an IPv4 address for the group:

switch# configure terminal

switch(config)# interface ethernet 2/1

switch(config-if)# no switchport

switch(config-if)# vrrp 7 

switch(config-if-vrrp)# address 10.0.0.10

switch(config-if-vrrp)# no shutdown
