Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on the GbE2c provides redundancy between routers in a LAN.
This is accomplished by configuring the same virtual router IP address and ID number on each participating VRRP-
capable routing device. One of the virtual routers is then elected as the master, based on a number of priority
criteria, and assumes control of the shared virtual router IP address. If the master fails, one of the backup virtual
routers will assume routing authority and take control of the virtual router IP address.
By default, VRRP is disabled. For more information on VRRP, see the "High Availability" chapter in the HP GbE2c
Ethernet Blade Switch for c-Class BladeSystem Application Guide.

This menu is used for configuring virtual routers for this switch. A virtual router is defined by its virtual router ID and
an IP address. On each VRRP-capable routing device participating in redundancy for this virtual router, a virtual
router will be configured to share the same virtual router ID and IP address.

Description
Displays the VRRP Virtual Router Menu. This menu is used for configuring up to
255 virtual routers on this switch.
Displays the VRRP virtual router group menu, used to combine all virtual routers
together as one logical entity. Group options must be configured when using
two or more GbE2c in a hot-standby failover configuration where only one
switch is active at any given time.
Displays the VRRP Virtual Router Interface Menu.
Displays the VRRP Tracking Menu. This menu is used for weighting the criteria
used when modifying priority levels in the master router election process.
Globally enables VRRP on this switch.
Globally disables VRRP on this switch.
Displays the current VRRP parameters.
