19. Configuring VRRP
Revision 1.14.3 194 RX1000/RX1100™
Generally, one will need to monitor logical network interfaces, as they participate directly in the IP
network. For the purposes of VRRP, one generally wants to monitor status at the highest network
layer that is practical (e.g. IP, layer 3).
Note
Monitoring a physical interface does not provide an aggregation of the status information of logical
interfaces configured on top of it. For example, it could be that all the logical interfaces on a given
physical interface are not running, but the physical interface itself is still up and running.
The Virtual IP address field configures the VRIP IP addresses associated with this VRID. Multiple
virtual IP addresses (maximum 200) can be configured in this field. Each IP address is separated
by a return key.
The Virtual IP Netmask field configures the Virtual IP address mask.
The Save button saves the virtual instance.
The Delete button deletes the virtual instance. After you save or delete an instance you must restart
the daemon to action your change.
