Chapter 39 Device HA The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 182 Configuration > Device HA > Legacy Mode > Add LABEL DESCRIPTION Show Advance Settings / Hide Advance Settings Click this button to display a greater or lesser number of configuration fields. Enable VRRP Group Select this to make the specified interface part of the virtual router. Clear this to take the specified interface out of the virtual router. Enabling a VRRP group has the ZyWALL monitor the connection of the group's interface. Name This field is read-only if you are editing the VRRP group. Type the name of the VRRP group. This field must be unique in the ZyWALL, but it is not used in the virtual router. The virtual router uses the VRID. The name can consist of alphanumeric characters, the underscore, and the dash and may be up to fifteen characters long. Description Type the description of the VRRP group. This field is only for your reference. It may be up to sixty printable ASCII characters long. Interface Name Select the interface in this device that is part of the virtual router. You can only select interfaces that have static IP addresses. Connect the interface to the same subnet as the group's interface on the other ZyWALL. Manage IP Enter the interface's IP address for management access. You can use this IP address to access the ZyWALL whether it is the master or a backup. This management IP address should be in the same subnet as the interface IP address so the backup ZyWALL cannot synchronize with the master via this VRRP interface. Manage IP Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask of the interface's management IP address. Role Select the role that you want the interface to play in the virtual router. Choices are: Master - This interface is the master interface in the virtual router. The interface always uses its virtual IP address when its status is active. Note: Do not set this field to Master for two or more ZyWALLs in the same virtual router (same VR ID). Priority Preempt Virtual Router Settings Backup - This interface is a backup interface in the virtual router. The current role depends on the other ZyWALLs in the virtual router. This field is available if the selected interface is a Backup interface. Type the priority of the backup interface. The backup interface with the highest value takes over the role of the master interface if the master interface becomes unavailable. The priority must be between 1 and 254. (The master interface has priority 255.) This field is available if the selected interface is a Backup interface. Select this if the selected interface should become the master interface if a lower-priority interface is the master when this one is enabled. (If the role is Master, the interface preempts by default.) ZyWALL USG 2000 User's Guide 681
