● Interface
Select the required VLAN interface operating as virtual router.
● VRID
Enter the ID of the virtual router. This ID defines the group of routers that form a virtual router
(VR). In the group, this is the same. It can no longer be used for other groups.
Valid values are 1.. 255.
The table has the following columns:
● Select
Select the check box in the row to be deleted.
● Interface
Shows the Interface that functions as the virtual router.
● VRID
Shows the ID of the virtual router.
● Virtual MAC Address
Shows the virtual MAC address of the virtual router.
● Primary IP Address
Shows the numerically lowest IPv4 address in this VLAN. The entry 0.0.0.0 means that the
"Primary" address on this VLAN is used. Otherwise all IPv4 addresses configured on this
VLAN in the "Layer 3 (IPv4) > Subnets" menu are valid values.
● Router State
Shows the current status of the virtual router. Possible values are:
– Master
– Backup
– Initialize
● Master IP Address
Shows the IPv4 address of the master router.
● Priority
Shows the priority of the virtual router.
Valid values are 1-254.
If an IPv4 address is assigned to the VRRP router that is also actually configured on the local
IPv4 interface, the value 255 is entered automatically. All other priorities can be distributed
freely among the VRRP routers. The higher the priority, the earlier the VRRP router
becomes "Master".

The router is the master router and handles the routing functionality for all assigned IPv4
addresses.
The router is the backup router. If the master router fails, the backup router takes over
the tasks of the master router.
The virtual router has just been turned on. It will soon change to the "Master" or "Backup"
status.
