OmniSwitch AOS Release 8 Network Configuration Guide December 2017 page 23-3
Quick Steps for Creating a Virtual Router
1 Create a virtual router. Specify a virtual router ID (VRID) and an existing VLAN ID. For example:
-> vrrp 6 4
Specify a VLAN that is configured with an IP interface. For information about creating VLANs, see
Chapter 4, “Configuring VLANs.”
2 Configure an IP address for the virtual router.
-> vrrp 6 4 address 10.10.2.3
3 Repeat steps 1 through 2 on all of the physical switches that will participate in backing up the
address(es) associated with the virtual router.
4 Enable VRRP on each switch.
-> vrrp 6 4 admin-state enable
Note. Optionally, the ip parameter can be used instead of the address parameter in the above example.
Note. Optional. To verify the VRRP configuration, enter the show vrrp|vrrp3 command.The display is
similar to the one shown here:
-> show vrrp
