In this VRRP exampleCisco Configuration Example, we will work on Cisco IOS and configure VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) on Cisco Routers.
Configuring VRRP Protocol is like configuring Cisco Proprietary protocol HSRP. There are only small command differences.
For our VRRP Cisco Configuration Example, we will use the below topology:
Now, let’s configure VRRP Protocolon Cisco Routers and learn VRRP better.
The first step of our VRRP Cisco Configuration is the IP address configuration on interfaces.
VRRP process is created with the VRRP Group ID and the Virtual IP Address.Here, our VRRP Group ID is 1 and our Virtual IP address is 172.16.0.5.
Like all descriptions, in VRRP, we can use description to give our VRRP group a memorable description.
For Master/Backup selection, VRRP priorities are configured. To manuplate VRRP selection and determine a Master manually, VRRP Priority values are important. The default one is 100 and the highest one is elected as VRRP Master.
