ESRP Over IPv6 Configuration Example

The example shown in the following figure illustrates an ESRP (Extreme Standby Router Protocol) configuration that can operate over IPv6.

Note

Note

To support operation over IPv6, the master VLANs configured in this example require both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address. ESRP route tracking and ESRP ping tracking are not supported for IPv6 addresses.

Configuration commands for the first ESRP switch are as follows:

create vlan sales
configure vlan sales tag 10
configure vlan sales add ports 1:1-1:2
configure vlan sales add ports 1:3, 1:5 tagged
configure vlan sales ipaddress 10.1.2.3/24
configure vlan sales ipaddress 2001:db8:36::1/48
create vlan engineering
configure vlan engineering tag 20
configure vlan engineering add ports 1:4
configure vlan engineering add ports 1:3, 1:5 tagged
configure vlan engineering ipaddress 10.4.5.6/24
configure vlan engineering ipaddress 2001:db8:36::2/48
create esrp esrp1
configure esrp esrp1 domain-id 4096
configure esrp esrp1 add master sales
configure esrp esrp1 priority 5
enable esrp esrp1
create esrp esrp2
configure esrp esrp2 domain-id 4097
configure esrp esrp2 add master engineering
enable esrp esrp2

Configuration commands for the second ESRP switch are as follows:

create vlan sales
configure vlan sales tag 10
configure vlan sales add ports 1:1-1:3
configure vlan sales ipaddress 10.1.2.3/24
configure vlan sales ipaddress 2001:db8:36::1/48
configure vlan sales add ports 1:5 tagged
create vlan engineering
configure vlan engineering tag 20
configure vlan engineering add ports 1:4, 2:1
configure vlan engineering ipaddress 10.4.5.6/24
configure vlan engineering ipaddress 2001:db8:36::2/48
configure vlan engineering add ports 1:5 tagged
create esrp esrp1
configure esrp esrp1 domain-id 4096
configure esrp 1 add master sales
enable esrp esrp1
create esrp esrp2
configure esrp esrp2 domain-id 4097
configure esrp esrp2 add master engineering
configure esrp esrp2 priority 5
enable esrp esrp2
