Description
Use this command to configure the advertisement interval of the backup VRRP routers. This
interval is the length of time, in seconds, between each advertisement sent from the backup
routers to the master router. The advertisement notifies the master router that the backup is still
active. If the master router does not receive an advertisement from the backup in a designated
amount of time, the backup with the highest priority can assume the role of master.
Usage Guidelines
This command can be used for either VRRP or VRRP-E.
Examples
To set the backup advertisement interval to 120 seconds for VRRP-E group 10:
switch(config)# rbridge-id 101
switch(config-rbridge-id-101)# int ve 25
switch(config-ve-25)# vrrp-extended-group 10
switch(config-vrrp-extended-group-10)# backup-advertisement-interval 120
