3.5 Checking the VRRP status
Each VRRP router as the following three states:
• Initializing
• Master
• Backup
The initial state is Initializing, while Master and Backup are chosen by comparing
priorities.
In the previous chapters Configuring the master router and Configuring the backup
router, you defined the statuses of master and backup. A switchover is
accomplished via VRID tracking.
