Configure Additional Addresses on a VRRP Interface
Perform this procedure to configure the additional addresses for which the virtual router acts as a back up.
Before you begin
Assign an IPv6 address to the interface.
Enable routing globally.
Do not configure RSMLT on the VLAN.
- To create a secondary virtual IP address on a VLAN:
-
Create primary and secondary IP addresses on the VLAN.
-
Create a VRRP instance on the VLAN.
-
Configure a primary virtual IP.
-
Change the VRF instance as required to configure additional addresses on the VRRP interface on a specific VRF instance. Not all parameters are configurable on non-default VRFs.
About this task
The first virtual IP configured on a VRRP interface is the primary virtual IP. After you create a VRRP interface, you can create secondary virtual IPs. Secondary virtual IP addresses must be in the same subnet as a Secondary IP Interface on the VLAN.
