Usage Guidelines
If the interfaces on which you configure the VRID use authentication, the VSRP packets on those interfaces also must use the same authentication.
- No authentication - The interfaces do not use authentication.
- Simple - The interfaces use a simple text-string as a
password in packets sent on the interface. If the interfaces use simple password
authentication, the VRID configured on the interfaces must use the same
authentication type and the same password.
Note: The simple text password authentication configuration goes through even if VSRP VRID is not configured.
