Configuring BFD for the VRRP master to monitor the uplinks, Network requirements

Page 203 highlights

The output shows that when BFD detects that Switch A fails, it notifies VRRP through the track module to change the status of Switch B to master without waiting for a period three times the advertisement interval, so that a backup can quickly preempt as the master. Configuring BFD for the VRRP master to monitor the uplinks Network requirements • As shown in Figure 51, Switch A and Switch B belong to VRRP group 1, whose virtual IP address is 192.168.0.10. • The default gateway of the hosts in the LAN is 192.168.0.10. • When Switch A operates properly, the hosts in the LAN access the external network through Switch A. When Switch A detects that the uplink is down through BFD, it decreases its priority so that Switch B can preempt as the master, ensuring that the hosts in the LAN can access the external network through Switch B.

The output shows that when BFD detects that Switch A fails, it notifies VRRP through the track
module to change the status of Switch B to master without waiting for a period three times the
advertisement interval, so that a backup can quickly preempt as the master.
Configuring BFD for the VRRP master to monitor the uplinks
Network requirements
As shown in
Figure 51
, Switch A and Switch B belong to VRRP group 1, whose virtual IP address is
192.168.0.10.
The default gateway of the hosts in the LAN is 192.168.0.10.
When Switch A operates properly, the hosts in the LAN access the external network through Switch
A. When Switch A detects that the uplink is down through BFD, it decreases its priority so that
Switch B can preempt as the master, ensuring that the hosts in the LAN can access the external
network through Switch B.

Configuration procedure
1.
Create VLANs, and assign corresponding ports to the VLANs. Configure the IP address of each
VLAN interface as shown in
Figure 51
. (Details not shown.)
2.
Configure BFD on Switch A:
# Configure the source address of BFD echo packets as 10.10.10.10.
