When Switch A fails, you can still ping Host B on Host A. To view the detailed information of the VRRP
group on Switch B, use the
display vrrp ipv6 verbose
command.
# When Switch A fails, the detailed information of VRRP group 1 on Switch B is displayed.

to Host B are forwarded by Switch B.

VRRP interface tracking configuration example
Network requirements
•
Switch A and Switch B belong to VRRP group 1 with the virtual IP addresses of 1::10/64 and
FE80::10.
•
Host A wants to access Host B on the Internet, and learns 1::10/64 as its default gateway through
RA messages sent by the switches.
