The interfaces of all routers participating in a virtual router group must

be within the same IP subnet.

If the IP address assigned to the virtual router with this command is

already configured as the primary address on this interface, this router

is considered the Owner, and will assume the role of the Master virtual

router in the group.

This interface is used for two purposes - to send/receive advertisement

messages and to forward on behalf of the virtual router when operating

as the Master VRRP router.

VRRP is enabled as soon as this command is entered. If you need to

customize any of the other parameters for VRRP such as

authentication, priority, or advertisement interval, then first configure

these parameters before enabling VRRP.

XAMPLE

This example creates VRRP group 1 using the primary interface for VLAN 1

as the VRRP group Owner.

Console(config)#interface vlan 1

Console(config-if)#vrrp 1 ip 192.168.1.6

Console(config-if)#

vrrp preempt

This command configures the router to take over as the master virtual

router for a VRRP group if it has a higher priority than the current acting

master router. Use the no form to disable preemption.
