GLBP Configuration on Cisco

GLBP Cisco Configuration Example

GLBP is a Cisco Proprietary Firsth Hop Redundancy Protocol. In this lesson, we will configure GLBP on Cisco devices with a GLBP Example Topology.

For our GLBP Example, we will use the below topology.

For GLBP Cisco Configuration, there are some steps. These steps are given below one by one:

1. Interface Configurations
2. GLBP Group Configuration with Group ID and Virtaul IP
3. GLBP Priority Configuration
4. Setting GLBP Preeption
5. Setting GLBP Load Balancing Option
6. Saving the configuration
7. GLBP Verification

Now, let’s start and learn How to Do GLBP Cisco Configuration practically.

Interface Configurations

Interface configuration is the basic IP configurations of switch ports. Here, our swicthes are Layer 3 switch.

Switch A# configure
Switch A(config)# interface Gigabitethernet 1/1/1
Switch A(config-if)# ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
Switch A(config-if)# no shutdown

Switch B# configure
Switch B(config)# interface Gigabitethernet 1/1/1
Switch B(config-if)# ip address 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.0
Switch B(config-if)# no shutdown
