eth vrrp clear password
Clears the password in a VRRP attribute record for the VRID (virtual router ID). To
see the current password, use the command
eth vrrp list
. To set a new password, use
the command
eth vrrp set password
. For more information,see “
VRRP Backup” on
page 6-16
of the Technical Reference Guide.
NOTE:
If the VRRP attribute record has no password, no VRRP authentication is performed.
NOTE:
If you clear the password for one VRRP router, you must clear the password for every
router for that VRID on the LAN. For example, if VRID 7 is defined in routers A, B, and
C in the LAN and you clear the password for router A, you must clear the password for
routers B and C as well.
NOTE:
This command takes effect immediately, but changes must saved if it is to persist after
a restart the interface or reboot of the router.
