A VRID has these characteristics:
• Integer from 1 through 255; thus, a LAN can have up to 255 VRIDs.
• Unique on the LAN, but can be reused on other LANs.
• The same VRID must be defined in all routers that make up the Virtual
Router, that is, the original router and all routers that are to serve as its
backups. For example, if VRID 7 is defined in router A, then VRID 7 must
also be defined in all backup routers for router A.
To see the effect of these commands, specify the logical interface on an eth list
command. For example, the defined VRID is listed in the following output:
-> eth list 0:1
NOTE:
A logical interface does not become effective until you save your changes and either
restart the logical interface or reboot the router. The VRRP interface also requires the
definition of its VRRP record before it becomes effective. See “Starting VRRP” on
page 6-21.
