Configuring Router 1
Router1(config)# inter e 1/6
Router1(config-if-1/6)# ip vrrp auth-type simple-text-auth ourpword
Configuring Router 2
Router2(config)# inter e 1/5
Router2(config-if-1/5)# ip vrrp auth-type simple-text-auth ourpword
VRRP Syntax
Syntax:
ip vrrp auth-type no-auth | simple-text-auth <auth-data>
The
auth-type no-auth
parameter indicates that the VRID and the interface it is configured on do not use
authentication.
The
auth-type simple-text-auth
<auth-data> parameter indicates that the VRID and the interface it is configured
on use a simple text password for authentication. The <auth-data> parameter is the password. If you use this
parameter, make sure all interfaces on all the routers supporting this VRID are configured for simple password
authentication and use the same password.
VRRPE Syntax
Syntax:
ip vrrp-extended auth-type no-auth | simple-text-auth <auth-data>
The parameter values are the same as for VRRP.
Router Type
A VRRP interface is either an Owner or a Backup for a given VRID. By default, the Owner becomes the Master
following the negotiation. A Backup becomes the Master only if the Master becomes unavailable.
A VRRPE interface is always a Backup for its VRID. The Backup with the highest VRRP priority becomes the
Master.
This section describes how to specify the interface type, how to change the type for VRRP, and how to set or
change the interface’s VRRP or VRRPE priority and track priority for the VRID.
NOTE:
You can force a VRRP master router to abdicate (give away control) of the VRID to a Backup by
temporarily changing the Master’s VRRP priority to a value less than the Backup’s. See “Forcing a Master Router
To Abdicate to a Standby Router” on page 22-18.
NOTE:
The type Owner is not applicable to VRRPE.
