Figure 121. VRRP for IPv6 Topology
NOTE:
In a VRRP or VRRPv3 group, if two routers come up with the same priority and another router already has MASTER
status, the router with master status continues to be master even if one of two routers has a higher IP or IPv6 address.
Router 2
R2(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 1/1
R2(conf-if-te-1/1)#no ip address
R2(conf-if-te-1/1)#ipv6 address 1::1/64
R2(conf-if-te-1/1)#vrrp-group 10
NOTE:
You must configure a virtual link local (fe80) address for each VRRPv3 group created for an interface. The VRRPv3
group becomes active as soon as you configure the link local address. Afterwards, you can configure the groups virtual
IPv6 address.
R2(conf-if-te-1/1-vrid-10)#virtual-address fe80::10
NOTE: The virtual IPv6 address you configure should be the same as the IPv6 subnet to which the interface belongs.
R2(conf-if-te-1/1-vrid-10)#virtual-address 1::10
R2(conf-if-te-1/1-vrid-10)#no shutdown
R2(conf-if-te-1/1)#show config
