TABLE 128

Field

Description

backup router ip-
addr expires in time

The IP addresses of Backups that have advertised themselves to this Master by sending
Hello messages.

The time value indicates how long before the Backup expires. A Backup expires if you
disable the advertise backup option on the Backup or the Backup becomes unavailable.
Otherwise, the Backup next Hello message arrives before the Backup expires. The Hello
message resets the expiration timer.

An expired Backup does not necessarily affect the Master. However, if you have not
disabled the advertise backup option on the Backup, then the expiration may indicate a
problem with the Backup.

NOTE
This field applies only when Hello messages are enabled on the Backups (using the
advertise backup option).

next hello sent in
time

How long until the Backup sends its next Hello message.

NOTE
This field applies only when this Layer 3 switch is the Master and the Backup is configured
to send Hello messages (the advertise backup option is enabled).

master router ip-addr
expires in time

The IP address of the Master and the amount of time until the Master dead interval
expires. If the Backup does not receive a Hello message from the Master by the time the
interval expires, either the IP address listed for the Master will change to the IP address of
the new Master, or this Layer 3 switch itself will become the Master.

NOTE
This field applies only when this Layer 3 switch is a Backup.

track port

The interfaces that the VRID interface is tracking. If the link for a tracked interface goes
down, the VRRP, VRRP v3, VRRP-E, or IPv6 VRRP-E priority of the VRID interface is
changed, causing the devices to renegotiate for Master.

NOTE
This field is displayed only if track interfaces are configured for this VRID.

Displaying detailed information for an individual VRID

You can display information about the settings configured for a specified VRRP Virtual Router ID
(VRID). To display information about VRID 1, enter the show ip vrrp vrid command.
