Configures an IPv4 Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) virtual router identifier (VRID).
Syntax

Usage Guidelines

Before configuring this command, ensure that VRRP is enabled globally; otherwise, an error stating “Invalid input...” is displayed as you try to create a VRRP instance.

The no form of this command removes the IPv4 VRRP VRID from the configuration.

Examples

The following example configures VRRP virtual router ID 1. 

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-vrid-1)# owner
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# ip-address 10.53.5.1
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/6-vrid-1)# activate
