ProSafe Managed Switch VRRP on a Master Router This example shows how to configure the 7000 Series Managed Switch to support VRRP. Router 1 is the default master router for the virtual route, and Router 2 is the backup router. CLI: Configure VRRP on a Master Router 1. Enable routing for the switch. IP forwarding will then be enabled by default. (Netgear Switch) #config (Netgear Switch) (Config)#ip routing 2. Configure the IP addresses and subnet masks for the port that will participate in the protocol. (Netgear Switch) (Config)#interface 1/0/2 (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#routing (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip address 192.150.2.1 255.255.0.0 (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#exit 3. Enable VRRP for the switch. (Netgear Switch) (Config)#ip vrrp 4. Assign virtual router IDs to port that will participate in the protocol. (Netgear Switch) (Config)#interface 1/0/2 (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip vrrp 20 5. Specify the IP address that the virtual router function will recognize. Note that the virtual IP address on port 1/0/2 is the same as the port's actual IP address therefore, this router will always be the VRRP master when it is active. The default priority is 255. (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip vrrp 20 ip 192.150.2.1 6. Enable VRRP on the port. (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#ip vrrp 20 mode (Netgear Switch) (Interface 1/0/2)#exit (Netgear Switch) (Config)#exit 126 | Chapter 9. VRRP
