Table 6-44. Add VRRP Virtual Router Dialog Box Parameters

Parameter

Definition

Interface

This is the IP Interface that the virtual router will be associated
with. The drop-down menu displays all the IP Interfaces currently
created. Select the Interface that the virtual router will be
associated with. Be sure to enable VRRP on the particular Interface
selected. Multiple virtual routers may be created on a single
interface but they must have unique IP Addresses and VRID's.

The default setting is the top interface in the

Routing>IP>Configuration>Interface screen.

VR ID

This is the virtual router identification number. The range is 1 -
255. The same VR ID can be used for multiple virtual routers as
long as the associated IP Interfaces are on different VLAN's (each
VR ID number can be used once per VLAN).

The default value is 1.

The range is 1-255 (decimal).

IP Address

Enter the IP Address for the virtual router. This is known as the
Virtual IP Address (VIP). The VIP can be the same as the IP Address
of the associated Interface. This is known as IP Address Owner.
The VIP can also be a unique address. This is called non-Address
Owner. IP Address Owner and non-Address Owner are discussed
in more detail below under VRRP Considerations. The VIP must be
on the same subnet as the corresponding IP Interface.

The default value is 0.0.0.0.

Priority

Enter the Priority of the virtual router. If the router is the IP
Address Owner of the VIP (as described above), then the Priority
will automatically be set to 255 regardless of the value entered. If
the router is not the owner of the VIP, than any value in the range
of 1 - 254 can be entered. Note that the higher the value, the
higher Priority the virtual router will have.

The default value is 100.
