VRRP and VRRPE Parameters
Table 22.2 lists the VRRP and VRRPE parameters. Most of the parameters and default values are the same for
both protocols. The exceptions are noted in the table.
Table 22.2: VRRP and VRRPE Parameters
Parameter
Description
Default
See page...
Protocol
The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)
based on RFC 2338 or VRRP-Extended, Foundry’s
enhanced implementation of VRRP
Disabled
Note
: Only one of the
protocols can be
enabled at a time.
22-11
22-12
VRRP or
VRRPE router
The Foundry Layer 3 Switch’s active participation as a
VRRP or VRRPE router. Enabling the protocol does
not activate the Layer 3 Switch for VRRP or VRRPE.
You must activate the device as a VRRP or VRRPE
router after you configure the VRRP or VRRPE
parameters.
Inactive
22-11
22-12
Virtual Router
ID (VRID)
The ID of the virtual router you are creating by
configuring multiple routers to back up an IP interface.
You must configure the same VRID on each router
that you want to use to back up the address.
No default.
None
22-3
22-11
22-12
Virtual Router
IP address
This is the address you are backing up.
No default.
•
VRRP – The virtual router IP address must be a
real IP address configured on the VRID interface
on one of the VRRP routers. This router is the IP
address Owner and is the default Master.
•
VRRPE – The virtual router IP address must be
in the same sub-net as a real IP address
configured on the VRRPE interface, but cannot
be the same as a real IP address configured on
the interface.
None
22-4
22-11
22-12
VRID MAC
address
The source MAC address in VRRP or VRRPE
packets sent from the VRID interface, and the
destination for packets sent to the VRID.
•
VRRP – A virtual MAC address defined as
00-00-5e-00-01-<vrid>. The Master owns the
Virtual MAC address.
•
VRRPE – A virtual MAC address defined as
02-E0-52-<hash-value>-<vrid>, where <hash-
value> is a two-octet hashed value for the IP
address and <vrid> is the VRID.
Not configurable
22-3
