The no form of the command removes the string from the configuration.

Default

No text description is associated with this configuration. The string must be entered.

composed of printable, 7-bit ASCII characters. If the string contains special characters (#, $,

policy

Syntax

policy policy-id [context service-id]
no policy policy-id

Context

config>vrrp

Description

This command creates the context to configure a VRRP priority control policy which is used to
control the VRRP in-use priority based on priority control events. It is a parental node for the various
VRRP priority control policy commands that define the policy parameters and priority event
conditions.

The virtual router instance priority command defines the initial or base value to be used by non-
owner virtual routers. This value can be modified by assigning a VRRP priority control policy to the
virtual router instance. The VRRP priority control policy can override or diminish the base priority
setting to establish the actual in-use priority of the virtual router instance.

The policy policy-id command must be created first, before it can be associated with a virtual router
instance.

Because VRRP priority control policies define conditions and events that must be maintained, they
can be resource intensive. The number of policies is limited to 1000.

The policy-id do not have to be consecutive integers. The range of available policy identifiers is from
1 to 9999.

The no form of the command deletes the specific policy-id from the system.
The policy-id must be removed first from all virtual router instances before the no policy command
can be issued. If the policy-id is associated with a virtual router instance, the command will fail.

Default

no policy - No VRRP priority control policies are defined.
