The output shows that when Switch A fails, Switch B takes over to forward packets from Host A to
Host B.
# Recover the link between Host A and Switch A, and display detailed information about VRRP

Multiple VRRP groups configuration example

This section provides an example of configuring multiple VRRP groups on switches.

Network requirements

Switch A and Switch B form two VRRP groups. VRRP group 1 uses the virtual IPv6 addresses 1::10/64

and FE80::10 to provide gateway service for hosts in VLAN 2, and VRRP group 2 uses the virtual IPv6

addresses 2::10/64 and FE90::10 to provide gateway service for hosts in VLAN 3, as shown in

Figure

.

Hosts in VLAN 2 learn 1::10/64 as their default gateway, and hosts in VLAN 3 learn 2::10/64 as their

default gateway from RA messages sent by the switches.
Assign Switch A a higher priority than Switch B in VRRP group 1 but a lower priority in VRRP group 2 to
distribute the traffic from VLAN 2 and VLAN 3 between the two switches. When one of the switches fails,

the healthy switch provides gateway service for both VLANs.
