Usage Information
The VRRP group only becomes active and sends VRRP packets when you congure a link-local virtual IP address.
When you delete the virtual address, the VRRP group stops sending VRRP packets.
• When you do not load the VRF microcode in the CAM, the VRID for a VRRP group is the same as the VRID
number congured with the vrrp-group or vrrp-ipv6-group commands.
•
When you load the VRF microcode in the CAM, the VRID for a VRRP group equals 16 times the vrrp-group
or vrrp-ipv6-group vrid number, plus the ip vrf vrf-id number. For example, if you load the VRF
microcode and you congure the VRRP group as 10 in VRF 2, the VRID for the VRRP group is (16 x 10) + 2, or
162. This VRID value is used in the lowest byte of the virtual MAC address of the VRRP group and is also used
for VRF routing.
NOTE: For all routers to interoperate, congure the same VRID on neighboring routers (Dell Networking
or non-Dell Networking) in the same VRRP group.
