advertise backup
A VRRP backup router does not advertise itself to a VRRP master router.
VRID interface configuration mode
Hello messages are used to advertise a backup router to a master router. To configure
the interval at which the messages are sent, use the
backup-hello-interval command.
The
advertise backup command is configured only on VRRP backup routers and is supported by VRRP and VRRP-E.
The
no form of the command disables the advertisement of a VRRP backup router to a VRRP
master router.
The following example enables advertisements from the VRRP backup router and configures the hello message interval to 10 seconds.
device# configure terminal device(config)# router vrrp device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/6 device(config-if-e1000-1/1/6)# ip address 10.53.5.1/24 device(config-if-e1000-1/1/6)# ip vrrp vrid 1 device(config-if-e1000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# advertise backup device(config-if-e1000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# backup-hello-interval 10
