VRRP Optimized Forwarding
To enable optimized L3 forwarding over VLT, use VRRP Active-Active mode. By default, VRRP Active-Active mode is enabled on the VLAN
interfaces. In Active-Active mode, each peer locally forwards L3 trac, resulting in reduced trac ow over the VLTi. Congure the same
L3 static and dynamic routing on each peer so that L3 reachability and routing tables are the same on both peers.
1 Enable VRRP Active-Active mode in VLAN-INTERFACE mode.
vrrp mode active-active
2 Congure VRRP on the L3 VLAN that spans both peers.
3 Repeat the steps on the VLT peer.
Congure VRRP active-active mode — peer 1
OS10(conf-if-vl-10)# vrrp mode active-active
Congure VRRP active-active mode — peer 2
