ipv6 router vrrp

Globally enables IPv6 Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).
Syntax
ipv6 router vrrp
no ipv6 router vrrp
Command Default

IPv6 VRRP is not globally enabled.

Modes

Global configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

After globally enabling IPv6 VRRP, the command prompt does not change. Nearly all subsequent IPv6 VRRP configuration is performed at the interface level, but IPv6 VRRP must be enabled globally before configuring IPv6 VRRP instances.

The no form of the command disables VRRP globally.

Examples

The following example enables IPv6 VRRP globally and enters interface configuration mode to allow you to enter more VRRP configuration. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# ipv6 router vrrp
device(config-ipv6-vrrp-router)# interface ethernet 1/1/4
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4)# ipv6 address fd3b::3/64
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4)# ipv6 vrrp vrid 2
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# backup priority 100
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# version 3
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# advertise backup
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# ipv6-address fe80::768e:f8ff:fe2a:0099
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# ipv6-address fd3b::2
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/4-vrid-2)# activate
