Configuration Overview Configuring VRRP
page 19-12 OmniSwitch 6600 Family Network Configuration Guide April 2006
A virtual router must be disabled before it may be modified. Use the vrrp command to disable the virtual
router first; then use the command again to modify the parameters. For example:
-> vrrp 7 3 disable
-> vrrp 7 3 priority 200
-> vrrp 7 3 enable
In this example, virtual router 7 on VLAN 3 is disabled. The virtual router is then modified to change its
priority setting. (For information about configuring the priority setting, see “Configuring Virtual Router
Priority” on page 19-10.) The virtual router is then re-enabled and will be active on the switch.
To delete a virtual router, use the no form of the vrrp command with the relevant VRID and VLAN ID.
For example:
-> no vrrp 7 3
Virtual router 7 on VLAN 3 is deleted from the configuration. (The virtual router does not have to be
disabled before you delete it.)
Setting VRRP Traps
A VRRP router has the capability to generate VRRP SNMP traps for events defined in the VRRP SNMP
MIB. By default traps are enabled.
In order for VRRP traps to be generated correctly, traps in general must be enabled on the switch through
the SNMP CLI. See the OmniSwitch 6600 Family Switch Management Guide for more information about
enabling SNMP traps globally.
To disable VRRP traps, use the no form of the vrrp trap command.
-> no vrrp trap
To re-enable traps, enter the vrrp trap command:
-> vrrp trap
Setting VRRP Startup Delay
To set a delay to prevent a router from becoming master before its routing tables are set up, use the vrrp
delay command.
-> vrrp delay 75
The switch will now wait 75 seconds before it will be available to take over as master for another router.
