VRRP Template
Use this template to distribute common parameters for appliances deployed withVirtual Router Redundancy Protocol(VRRP).
In an out-of-path deployment, one method for redirecting traffic to the EdgeConnect appliance is to configure VRRP on a common virtual interface. Possible scenarios are:
当没有备用路由器端口vailable, a single appliance uses VRRP to peer with a router (or Layer 3 switch). This is appropriate for an out-of-path deployment in which no redundancy is needed.
A pair of active, redundant appliances use VRRP to share a common, virtual IP address at their site. This deployment assigns one appliance a higher priority than the other, thereby making it the Master appliance, and the other the Backup.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Admin | Options areup(enable) anddown(disable). |
| Advertisement Timer | Default is1 second. |
| Authentication String | Clear text password for authenticating group members. |
| Preemption | Leave this selected/enabled so that after a failure, the appliance with the highest priority comes back online and again assumes primary responsibility. |
| Priority | The greater the number, the higher the priority. The appliance with the higher priority is the VRRP Master. |
