9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
If the interface is disabled, the cost value is subtracted from the priority value and forces a new MASTER
election if the priority value is lower than the priority value in the BACKUP virtual routers.
virtual-address
Configure up to 12 IP addresses of virtual routers in the VRRP group. To start sending VRRP packets, set at least one virtual
address for the VRRP group.
Syntax
virtual-address ip-address1 [... ip-address12]
To delete one or more virtual IP addresses, use the no virtual-address ip-address1 [...
ip-address12] command.
Parameters
ip-address1 Enter an IP address of the virtual router in dotted decimal format. The IP address
must be on the same subnet as the interface’s primary IP address.
... ip-address12 (OPTIONAL) Enter up to 11 additional IP addresses of virtual routers in dotted
decimal format. Separate the IP addresses with a space. The IP addresses must be
on the same subnet as the interface’s primary IP address.
Defaults Not configured.

Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
The VRRP group only becomes active and sends VRRP packets when a virtual IP address is configured.
When you delete the virtual address, the VRRP group stops sending VRRP packets.
A system message appears after you enter or delete the virtual-address command.
To guarantee that a VRRP group becomes MASTER, configure the VRRP group’s virtual address with the
same IP address as the interface’s primary IP address and change the priority of the VRRP group to 255.
You can ping the virtual addresses configured in all VRRP groups.
vrrp delay minimum
Set the delay time for VRRP initialization after an interface comes up.
Syntax
vrrp delay minimum seconds
Parameters
seconds Enter the number of seconds for the delay for VRRP initialization after an interface
becomes operational. The range is from 0 to 900 (0 indicates no delay).
Defaults 0
