Version Description
8.3.2.0 Introduced on the E-Series TeraScale.
Usage Information
The VRRP group only becomes active and sends VRRP packets when you congure 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 congured 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 congure 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, congure the same VRID on neighboring routers (Dell
Networking or non-Dell Networking) in the same VRRP group.
Related Commands virtual-address — assigns up to 12 virtual IP addresses per VRRP group.
