create vrrp vlan vrid
create vrrp vlan <vlan_name> vrid <vridval>
Description
Creates a VRRP virtual router on the switch.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
VRRP Virtual Router IDs can be used across multiple VLANs. You can create multiple virtual routers on
different VLANs. Virtual Router IDs need not be unique to a specific VLAN.
Before configuring any virtual router parameters, you must first create the VRRP instance on the switch.
If you define VRRP parameters before creating the VRRP, you may see an error similar to the following:
Error: VRRP VR for vlan vrrp1, vrid 1 does not exist.
Please create the VRRP VR before assigning parameters.
Configuration failed on backup MSM, command execution aborted!
If this happens, create the VRRP instance and then configure its parameters.
Example
The following command creates a VRRP router on VLAN
vrrp-1
, with a VRRP virtual router ID of 1:
create vrrp vlan vrrp-1 vrid 1
