2. Globally enable the VRRP protocol.
device(config)# router vrrp
3. Configure the ethernet interface link.
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/5
4. Configure the IP address of the interface for Router 2. All devices configured for the same virtual router ID (VRID) must be on
the same subnet.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ip address 10.53.5.3/24
5. Assign Router 2 to VRID 1, the same VRID as Router 1.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5)# ip vrrp vrid 1
NOTE
You can assign a VRID number in the range of 1 through 255.
6. Designate this router as a backup VRRP device.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# backup priority 110
While configuring a backup device, you can set a priority that is used when a master VRRP device goes offline. The backup
device with the highest priority will assume the role of master device.
7. Configure the VRRP version.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# version 2
8. Configure the number of seconds between hello messages.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# hello-interval 10
9. By default, backup VRRP devices do not send hello messages to advertise themselves to the master. Use the following
command to enable a backup router to send hello messages to the master VRRP device.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# advertise backup
10. Configure the IP address of the VRID.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# ip-address 10.53.5.1
The VRID IP address is the same virtual IP addresses you used for Router 1.
11. Enable the VRRP session.
device(conf-if-e1000-1/1/5-vrid-1)# activate
VRRP router 1 for this interface is activating
