VRRP Advertisements
The virtual router master sends VRRP advertisements to routers which are in the same group
(configured with the same virtual router identification).
The VRRP advertisements are encapsulated in IP packets and sent to the IP v4 Multicast
address assigned to the VRRP group. The advertisements are sent every second by default; the
advertisement interval is configurable.
The advertisement Interval is in mS (Range: 50 - 40950, Default: 1000). A non-value is
invalid.
• In VRRP version 3, the operational advertise interval is rounded down the nearest
10ms.
• In VRRP version 2, the operational advertise interval is rounded down to the nearest
second. The minimum operational value is 1 sec.
