Configuring the backup router

To create a basic backup router configuration for Router 2 in

Figure 8

on page 534, perform the

following steps.

1. Establish a NETCONF session with Router 2.

2. Issue the <edit-config> RPC to edit the running configuration.

3. Ensure that VCS Fabric mode is enabled on Router 2.

<vcsmode xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-vcs">

<vcs-mode>true</vcs-mode>

</vcsmode>

4. Globally enable VRRP and VRRP-E for the local routing bridge (Router 2).

NOTE

The <vrrp/> leaf element enables both VRRP and VRRP-E globally.

<rbridge-id xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-rbridge">

<protocol xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface">

<hide-vrrp-holder xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-vrrp">

<vrrp/>

</hide-vrrp-holder>

</protocol>

</rbridge-id>

5. Configure the tengigabitethernet interface link for Router 2.

<interface xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface">

<tengigabitethernet>

<name>102/1/5</name>

6. Configure the IP address of the Ethernet link interface for Router 2.

<interface xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface">

<tengigabitethernet>

<ip>

<ip-config

xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-ip-config">

<address>

<address>192.53.5.3</address>

</address>

</ip-config>

</ip>

This router will become the backup router to Router 1.
