VRRP Configuration Hierarchy

To configure VRRP for IPv4, include the following statements:

vrrp-group group-id {(accept-data | no-accept-data);advertise-interval seconds;authentication-key key;authentication-type authentication;fast-interval milliseconds;(preempt | no-preempt) {hold-time seconds;}priority number;track {interface interface-name {bandwidth-threshold bits-per-second priority-cost priority;priority-cost priority;}priority-hold-time seconds;route prefix/prefix-length routing-instance instance-name priority-cost priority;}virtual-address [ addresses ];vrrp-inherit-from active group group-index;}

You can include these statements at the following hierarchy levels:

  • [edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number family inet address address]
  • [edit logical-systems logical-system-name interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number family inet address address]

If you want to enable Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol version 3 (VRRPv3), configure the version-3 statement at the [edit protocols vrrp] hierarchy level.

Note: When enabling VRRPv3, you must ensure that VRRPv3 is enabled on all the VRRP routers in the network. This is because VRRPv3 does not interoperate with the previous versions of VRRP.
