Configuring VRRP Quick Steps for Creating a Virtual Router
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Network Configuration Guide April 2006 page 19-3
Quick Steps for Creating a Virtual Router
1 Create a virtual router. Specify a virtual router ID (VRID) and a VLAN ID. For example:
-> vrrp 6 4
The VLAN must already be created on the switch. For information about creating VLANs, see
Chapter 4, “Configuring VLANs.”
2 Configure an IP address for the virtual router.
-> vrrp 6 4 ip 10.10.2.3
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 on all of the physical switches that will participate in backing up the address(es)
associated with the virtual router.
4 Enable VRRP on each switch.
-> vrrp 6 4 enable
Note. Optional. To verify the VRRP configuration, use the show vrrp command. For example:
-> show vrrp
VRRP trap generation: Enabled
VRRP startup delay: 75
IP Admin Adv

Virtual Router VRID = 1 on VLAN = 1
Admin Status = Enabled
Priority = 255
Preempt = Yes
Adv. Interval = 1
Virtual MAC = 00-00-5E-00-01-01
