Configuring VRRP for Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces

To configure VRRP for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces using IPv4, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch1# config terminal
switch1(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface
gigabitethernet 2/2
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# ip address
10.1.1.10 255.255.255.0
Step 4
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 5
switch(config-if)# vrrp 100
switch(config-if-vrrp)
Step 6
switch(config-if-vrrp)# address
10.1.1.100
Step 7
switch(config-if-vrrp)# priority 10
Step 8
switch(config-if-vrrp)# no shutdown
To configure VRRP for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces using IPv6, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch1# config terminal
switch1(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface
gigabitethernet 2/2
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# ipv6 address
2001:0db8:800:200c::417a/64
Step 4
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 5
switch(config-if)# vrrp ipv6 100
switch(config-if-vrrp-ipv6)
Step 6
switch(config-if-vrrp-ipv6)# address
2001:0db8:800:200c::417a

Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enters the interface configuration mode on the Gigabit
Ethernet interface (slot 2, port 2).
Assigns the IPv4 address (10.1.1.10) and subnet mask
(255.255.255.0) for the Gigabit Ethernet interface.
Enables the selected interface.
Creates VR ID 100.
Configures the virtual IPv4 address (10.1.1.100) for the
selected VRRP group (identified by the VR ID).
The virtual IPv4 address must be in the same
Note
subnet as the IPv4 address of the Gigabit
Ethernet interface. All members of the VRRP
group must configure the same virtual IPv4
address.
Configures the priority for the selected interface within
this VRRP group.
Note The interface with the highest priority is selected
as the master.
Enables the VRRP protocol on the selected interface.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enters the interface configuration mode on the Gigabit
Ethernet interface (slot 2, port 2).
Assigns the IPv6 address for the Gigabit Ethernet
interface.
Enables the selected interface.
Creates VR ID 100.
Assigns single primary link-local IPv6 address or one of
the multiple secondary IPv6 addresses.
If this IPv6 address is the same as the physical
Note
IPv6 address, this switch is automatically the
owner of this IPv6 address.
