VRRP Groups Configuration Example

Note
This configuration example assumes that VRs are already created and configured with regular VRRP parameters, but not yet enabled (enable vrrp {vlan [vlan_name | vlan_list] vrid [vridval | vrid_list} command is not yet executed). If VRs are already enabled, disable all the VRs (disable vrrp {vlan [vlan_name | vlan_list] vrid [vridval | vrid_list]}).- Create VRRP group
“groupA”:
create vrrp group “groupA”
- Add primary VR before adding any secondary VRs to the
group:
configure vrrp group “groupA” add primary-vr vlan “vlan1” vrid 1
- Add secondary VRs one at a time:
configure vrrp group “groupA” add secondary-vr vlan “vlan2” vrid 2 configure vrrp group “groupA” add secondary-vr vlan “vlan3” vrid 3 configure vrrp group “groupA” add secondary-vr vlan “vlan4” vrid 4 configure vrrp group “groupA” add secondary-vr vlan “vlan5” vrid 5
Or alternatively, VLAN tag range and VRID range can be specified. In this case, vlan1 has vlan-id 101, vlan2 has vlan-id 102, etc.:
configure vrrp group “groupA” add secondary-vr vlan 102-105 vrid 2-5
- Configure fabric routing on all the member VRs in the given
group:
configure vrrp group "groupA" fabric-routing on
- Apply group configuration on member VRs. Before enabling the group,
member VRs are operating in individual VR
mode:
enable vrrp group groupA
- Enable all VRs using the global command, if there is only one
group:
enable vrrp
or enable only member VRs of this group:enable vrrp group groupA members
After configuring VRRP groups, the following appears for the below show commands:
# show vrrp group Members Group Name Priority State Count TP/TR/TV/P/T /FR groupA(En) 100 MSTR 6 0 0 0 Y 1 Y En-Enabled, Ds-Disabled, Pri-Priority, T-Advert Timer, P-Preempt TP-Tracked Pings, TR-Tracked Routes, TV-Tracked VLANs, FR-Fabric Routing, MX-Mixed values # show vrrp vlan1 VLAN: vlan1 VRID: 1 VRRP: Enabled State: MASTER Virtual Router: VR-Default Priority: 100(backup) Advertisement Interval: 1 sec Version: v3-v2 Preempt: Yes Preempt Delay: 0 sec Virtual IP Addresses: Accept mode: Off Group : groupA (Enabled) Host-Mobility: Off Host-Mobility Exclude-Ports: Checksum: Include pseudo-header Tracking mode: ALL Tracked Pings: - Tracked IP Routes: - Tracked VLANs: - Fabric Routing: On * indicates a tracking condition has failed
