[VRRP Virtual Router 1 Priority Tracking Menu]
vrs
- Enable/disable tracking master virtual routers
ifs
- Enable/disable tracking other interfaces

cur
- Display current VRRP virtual router configuration
NOTE:
This menu is available only on the GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch.
This menu is used for modifying the priority system used when electing the master router from a pool of virtual routers.
Various tracking criteria can be used to bias the election results. Each time one of the tracking criteria is met, the
priority level for the virtual router is increased by an amount defined through the VRRP Tracking Menu.
Criteria are tracked dynamically, continuously updating virtual router priority levels when enabled. If the virtual router
preemption option is enabled, this virtual router can assume master routing authority when its priority level rises
above that of the current master.
Some tracking criteria (
vrs
,
ifs
, and
ports
below) apply to standard virtual routers, otherwise called “virtual
interface routers”. A
virtual
server
router is defined as any virtual router whose IP address (
addr
) is the same as any
configured virtual server IP address.
The following table describes the Virtual Router Priority Tracking Configuration Menu options.
Table 152
Virtual Router Priority Tracking Configuration Menu options
Command
Description
vrs disable|enable
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each
virtual router in master mode on this switch. This is useful for making sure that
traffic for any particular client/server pairing are handled by the same switch,
increasing routing and load balancing efficiency. This command is disabled by
default.
ifs disable|enable
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each
other IP interface active on this switch. An IP interface is considered active
when there is at least one active port on the same VLAN. This helps elect the
virtual routers with the most available routes as the master. This command is
disabled by default.
ports disable|enable
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each
active port on the same VLAN. A port is considered “active” if it has a link and
is forwarding traffic. This helps elect the virtual routers with the most available
ports as the master. This command is disabled by default.
