Parameter Description

Virtual IP Address

Enter the virtual IPv4/IPv6 address here. This parameter will be either IPv4 or

IPv6 depending on the Address Family selection made in the previous step. All

routers in the same VRRP group must be configured with the same virtual router

ID and virtual address. The IP address of the virtual router can be a real address

configured on the routers or an unused address. If the virtual address is equal to

the real address of the interface, this virtual router is the IP address owner.

Advertisement Interval

Enter the time interval value between successive advertisements by the master

router here. The range is from 1 to 255 seconds. The master will constantly send

VRRP advertisements. All virtual routers in a VRRP group must use the same

timer values.

Preemption

Select to enable or disable the preemption feature here. This is used to allow a

router to take over the master role if it has a better priority than the current

master.

Priority

Enter the priority value of the virtual router here. The range is from 1 to 254. The

master of a VRRP group is elected based on the priority. The virtual router with

the highest priority becomes the master and others with lower priorities act as the

backup for the VRRP group. If there are multiple routers with the same highest

priority value, the router with the larger IP address will become the Master. The

router that is the IP address owner of the VRRP group is always the master of the

VRRP group, and has the highest priority of 255.

Critical IP Address

Enter the critical IP address here. If the critical IP is configured on one virtual

router, the virtual router cannot be activated when the critical IP address is

unreachable. One VRRP group can only track one critical IP address.

Non-owner ping

Select to enable or disable the non-owner ping feature here. This is used to

enable a non-IP address owner virtual router in the master state to response the

ICMP echo request for IPv4 addresses or the ND request for IPv6 addresses.

Shutdown

Select to enable or disable the shutdown feature here. Avoid the common mistake

of shutting down the IP address owner routers before shutting down other non-

owner routers.
