Basic VRRP-E parameter configuration

NOTE

You also can use the enable command to activate the configuration. This command does the same
thing as the activate command.

Configuring IPv6 VRRP-E

To implement an IPv6 VRRP-E configuration using all the default values, enter the following
commands.

NOTE

You must first configure the ipv6 unicast-routing command at the global configuration level to
enable IPv6 VRRP-E on the router.

Brocade Router2(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing

Brocade Router2(config)# ipv6 router vrrp-extended

Brocade Router2(config-ipv6-VRRP-E-router)# interface ethernet 1/1/5

Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5)# ipv6-address 2001:db8::2/64

Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5)# ipv6 vrrp-extended vrid 1

Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# backup priority 50 track-priority

10

Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# ipv6-address 2001:db8::99

Brocade Router2(config-if-e10000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# activate

Syntax: [no] ipv6 unicast-routing

Syntax: ipv6 router vrrp-extended

Syntax: [no] ipv6-address ipv6-addr

Syntax: ipv6 vrrp-extended vrid vrid

Syntax: [no] backup [priority value] [track-priority value]

Syntax: [no] activate

The vrid variable specifies the virtual router ID.

The ipv6-addr variable specifies the IPv6 address of the router.

You must identify a VRRP-E router as a Backup before you can activate the virtual router on a
Brocade device. However, after you configure the virtual router, you can use the backup command
to change its priority or track priority.

The priority value option specifies the IPv6 VRRP-E priority for this virtual Backup router. You can
specify a value from 3 through 254. The default is 100.

The track-priority value option changes the track port priority of a Backup router. You can specify a
value from 1 through 254. The default is 2.

NOTE

You also can use the enable command to activate the configuration. This command does the same
thing as the activate command.
