Creating a Virtual Router
To enable VRRP, create a virtual router. In Dell Networking Operating System (OS), the virtual router
identifier (VRID) identifies a VRRP group.
To enable or delete a virtual router, use the following commands.
• Create a virtual router for that interface with a VRID.
INTERFACE mode
vrrp-group vrid
The VRID range is from 1 to 255.
NOTE: The interface must already have a primary IP address defined and be enabled, as shown
in the second example.
• Delete a VRRP group.
INTERFACE mode
no vrrp-group vrid
Examples of Configuring and Verifying VRRP
The following examples how to configure VRRP.
Dell(conf)#int Te 1/1
Dell(conf-if-Te-1/1)#
vrrp-group 111
Dell(conf-if-Te-1/1-vrid-111)#
The following examples how to verify the VRRP configuration.
Dell(conf-if-Te-1/1)#show conf
!
interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1
ip address 10.10.10.1/24
!
vrrp-group 111
no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-Te-1/1)#
Configuring a Virtual IP Address
To configure a virtual IP address, use the following commands.
1. Configure a VRRP group.
INTERFACE mode
vrrp-group vrrp-id
The VRID range is from 1 to 255.
2. Configure virtual IP addresses for this VRID.
INTERFACE -VRID mode
virtual-address ip-address1 [...ip-address12]
The range is up to 12 addresses.
