Adding and Deleting Virtual Router
All VRRP configurations should be replicated across switches in a fabric that runs VRRP.
The total number of VRRP groups that you can configure on a Gigabit Ethernet port, including main
Note
interfaces and subinterfaces, cannot exceed seven. This limitation applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 groups.
To create or remove a VR for IPv4, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface vsan 10
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# vrrp 250
switch(config-if-vrrp)#
switch(config-if)# no vrrp 250
To create or remove a VR for IPv6, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface vsan 10
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# vrrp ipv6 250
switch(config-if-vrrp-ipv6)#
switch(config-if)# no vrrp ipv6 250
Virtual Router Initiation
By default, a virtual router is always disabled. VRRP can be configured only if this state is enabled. Be
sure to configure at least one IP address, either IPv4 or IPv6, before attempting to enable a VR.
To enable or disable a virtual router configure for IPv4, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch(config-if-vrrp)# no shutdown
switch(config-if-vrrp)# shutdown
To enable or disable a virtual router configured for IPv6, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch(config-if-vrrp-ipv6)# no shutdown
switch(config-if-vrrp-ipv6)# shutdown
