VRRP Components
Each
physical
router
running
VRRP
is
known
as
a
VRRP
router
.
Virtual Router
Two
or
more
VRRP
routers
can
be
configured
to
form
a
virtual
router
(RFC
2338).
Each
VRRP
router
may
participate
in
one
or
more
virtual
routers.
Each
virtual
router
consists
of
a
user
‐
configured
virtual
router
identifier
(VRID)
and
an
IPv4
address.
Virtual Router MAC Address
The
VRID
is
used
to
build
the
virtual
router
MAC
Address
.
The
five
highest
‐
order
octets
of
the
virtual
router
MAC
Address
are
the
standard
MAC
prefix
(00
‐
00
‐
5E
‐
00
‐
01)
defined
in
RFC
2338.
The
VRID
is
used
to
form
the
lowest
‐
order
octet.
Owners and Renters
Only
one
of
the
VRRP
routers
in
a
virtual
router
may
be
configured
as
the
IPv4
address
owner.
This
router
has
the
virtual
router’s
IPv4
address
as
its
real
interface
address.
This
router
responds
to
packets
addressed
to
the
virtual
router’s
IPv4
address
for
ICMP
pings,
TCP
connections,
and
so
on.
There
is
no
requirement
for
any
VRRP
router
to
be
the
IPv4
address
owner.
Most
VRRP
installations
choose
not
to
implement
an
IPv4
address
owner.
For
the
purposes
of
this
chapter,
VRRP
routers
that
are
not
the
IPv4
address
owner
are
called
renters
.
Master and Backup Virtual Router
Within
each
virtual
router,
one
VRRP
router
is
selected
to
be
the
virtual
router
master.
See
for
an
explanation
of
the
selection
process.
Note:
If
the
IPv4
address
owner
is
available,
it
will
always
become
the
virtual
router
master.
The
virtual
router
master
forwards
packets
sent
to
the
virtual
router.
It
also
responds
to
Address
Resolution
Protocol
(ARP)
requests
sent
to
the
virtual
router
ʹ
s
IPv4
address.
Finally,
the
virtual
router
master
sends
out
periodic
advertisements
to
let
other
VRRP
routers
know
it
is
alive
and
its
priority.
Within
a
virtual
router,
the
VRRP
routers
not
selected
to
be
the
master
are
known
as
virtual
router
backups.
Should
the
virtual
router
master
fail,
one
of
the
virtual
router
backups
becomes
the
master
and
assumes
its
responsibilities.
