Syntax

vrrp create vrid version
no vrrp create vrid version

Parameters

vrid Specifies the Virtual Router ID (VRID) to be used on this interface. Valid Values: 1 - 255. Default Value: None.
version Specifies the VRRP protocol version for this instance. Valid Values:
  • v2-IPv4 - Supports version 2 of the VRRP protocol, RFC 2338
  • v3-IPv4 Supports version 3 of the VRRP protocol for IPv4, RFC 5798
  • v3-IPv6 - Supports version 3 of the VRRP protocol for IPv6, RFC 5798

Defaults

None.

Mode

Interface configuration mode.

Usage

This command must be executed to create an instance of VRRP on a routing interface (VLAN) before any other VRRP settings can be configured.

Up to 8 virtual router IDs can be associated with a given interface.

Up to 1024 S-Series, 32 K-Series, and 256 7100-Series VRRP sessions are supported per device.

The “no” form of this command removes the VRRP session.

Example

This example creates a VRRP instance 1 for the IPv4 version 2 VRRP protocol on VLAN 20:

System(rw)->configure
System(rw)-config)->interface vlan 20
System(rw)-config-intf-vlan.0.20)->vrrp create 1 v2-ipv4
System(rw)-config-intf-vlan.0.20)->
