Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol configuration
Command: /cfg/l3/vrrp
[Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol Menu]
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on the HP 10GbE switch 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 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Application Guide.
The following table describes the VRRP Configuration Menu options.

Description
Displays the VRRP Virtual Router Menu. This menu is used for configuring 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 switches 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.
