configure vrrp vrid
[<tracking VRID number> | all]
add track-vrid [<tracked VRID number> | all]
Description
Adds failure tracking between the speciÞed VRRP classes.
Syntax Description
Default
By default, each VRRP class will failover independently of the other classes; that is, no class tracks any
other class.
Usage Guidelines
You must have administrator privileges to issue this command.
You can specify one particular VRRP class or all currently conÞgured VRRP classes as either the
tracking class or the tracked class. For each speciÞed tracked class and each speciÞed tracking class:
¥ Neither switch should have master priority (255) for the class.
¥ Both switchesÕ preemption behavior for the class must be dont-preempt.
NOTE
You must configure the identical tracking behavior on both switches.
You must use the build command to commit the conÞguration changes made by this command.
Example
The following command causes VRRP class 101 to track class 100; if class 100 fails, class 101 should also
failover:
configure vrrp vrid 101 add track-vrid 100
The following command causes VRRP class 101 to track all other classes; if any class besides 101 fails,
class 101 should also failover:
configure vrrp vrid 101 add track-vrid all
The following command causes all classes besides class 100 to track class 100; if class 100 fails, all other
classes should also failover:
configure vrrp vrid all add track-vrid 100
tracking VRID number The VRID of the VRRP class that tracks failure; a number between 1 and 255.
tracked VRID number The VRID of the VRRP class whose failure is tracked; a number between 1 and 255.
all Specifies all VRRP classes.
