Configuring VRRP
This is an example of output from the
show standby
privileged EXEC command, displaying HSRP
information for two standby groups (group 1 and group 100):
Switch#
show standby
VLAN1 - Group 1
Local state is Standby, priority 105, may preempt
Hellotime 3 holdtime 10
Next hello sent in 00:00:02.182
Hot standby IP address is 172.20.128.3 configured
Active router is 172.20.128.1 expires in 00:00:09
Standby router is local
Standby virtual mac address is 0000.0c07.ac01

Configuring VRRP
Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(58)SE, switches with the IP base feature set support the Virtual
Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).
The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is an election protocol that dynamically assigns
responsibility for one or more virtual routers to the VRRP routers on a LAN, allowing several routers on
a multiaccess link to utilize the same virtual IP address. A VRRP router is configured to run the VRRP
protocol in conjunction with one or more other routers attached to a LAN. In a VRRP configuration, one
router is elected as the virtual router master, with the other routers acting as backups in case the virtual
router master fails.
VRRP Limitations
•
The switch supports either HSRP or VRRP, but not both. The switch cannot join a stack that has both
HSRP and VRRP configured.
•
The VRRP implementation on the switch does not support the MIB specified in RFC 2787.
•
The VRRP implementation on the switch supports only text-based authentication.
•
You cannot enable VRRP for IPv4 and IPv6 groups simultaneously.
For more VRRP information and configuration instructions, see the
Configuring VRRP
feature module.
