Router Redundancy Using XRRP
Overview of XRRP Operation
Displaying the Infinite Fail-Back Configuration
Syntax: show xrrp config global
Indicates the router’s global XRRP configuration, including
infinite fail-back status.
Infinite failback status in a router configured for XRRP operation. When
this shows Enabled, automatic fail-back does not operate and it is
necessary to use the xrrp ctrl-transfer command to initiate a fail-back.
Note: Events in the fail-back router, such as a reboot, can also cause a
fail-back. Refer to “Router Operation in the Infinite Fail-Back Mode” on
page 12-14.
