Parameters

vrrp

Specifies the ID of the virtual router, a number
between 1 and 255.

over

Specifies the interface over which the virtual router
will send and receive packets. An interface name
consists of “VLAN” followed by the name or ID (VID)
of the VLAN and the interface number (e.g., vlan-
Sales-0 or vlan4-0).

the specified virtual router. The IP address must be
compatible with the IP address and subnet mask
associated with the Ethernet interface over which the
virtual router is operating.

adinterval

Specifies the interval in seconds between
advertisement packets. The range is 1 to 255
seconds and the default is 1 second. You must
configure all switches in the same virtual router with
the same adinterval.

authentication

Specifies whether there is authentication. Options

are:

none

Specifies no authentication. This is the
default setting.

plaintext

Specifies that authentication is required,
which you set with the password
parameter.

password

Specifies the password used to authenticate VRRP
packets. The password can be up to 8 alphanumeric
characters. The password is case sensitive and can

Passwords are sent in plaintext. The AT-S63
