Displaying a summary of VSRP information
To obtain a summary of VSRP Information, enter the show vsrp brief command. If the command is
entered on a VSRP Backup, it displays the following information.

When the command is entered on a VSRP Master, it displays the following information.
priority The device’s preferability for becoming the Master for the VRID. During
negotiation, the Backup with the highest priority becomes the Master.
If two or more Backups are tied with the highest priority, the Backup
interface with the highest IP address becomes the Master for the VRID.
hello-interval The number of units between Hello messages from the Master to the
Backups for a given VRID (1 unit = 100 milliseconds).
dead-interval The configured value for the dead interval. The dead interval is the
number of units a Backup waits for a Hello message from the Master for
the VRID before determining that the Master is no longer active (1 unit =
100 milliseconds).
If the Master does not send a Hello message before the dead interval
expires, the Backups negotiate (compare priorities) to select a new
Master for the VRID.
NOTE: The value is never 0, as it defaults to 3 units.
hold-interval The number of units a Backup that intends to become the Master will
wait before actually beginning to forward Layer 2 traffic for the VRID (1
unit = 100 milliseconds).
If the Backup receives a Hello message with a higher priority than its
own before the hold-down interval expires, the Backup remains in the
Backup state and does not become the new Master.
initial-ttl The number of hops a Hello message can traverse after leaving the
device before the Hello message is dropped.
NOTE: An MRP ring counts as one hop, regardless of the number of
nodes in the ring.
next hello sent in The amount of time until the Master’s dead interval expires. If the
Backup does not receive a Hello message from the Master by the time
the interval expires, either the IP address listed for the Master will
change to the IP address of the new Master, or this Layer 3 Switch itself
will become the Master.
NOTE: This field applies only when this device is a Backup.
master router The IP address of the master router.
Member ports The ports in the VRID.
Operational ports The member ports that are currently up.
Forwarding ports The member ports that are currently in the Forwarding state. Ports that
are forwarding on the Master are listed. Ports on the Standby, which are
in the Blocking state, are not listed.
Restart ports Lists the ports on which VSRP fast start enabled.
