virtual-router-id: Specifies an IPv6 VRRP group by its virtual router ID in the range of 1 to 255.

name: Specifies a master IPv6 VRRP group name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 20 characters.

Usage guidelines

This command configures an IPv6 VRRP group as a master group through assigning a master group name to it. An IPv6 VRRP group that follows the master group is a subordinate VRRP group. The master VRRP group exchanges VRRP packets among member devices. The subordinate group does not exchange VRRP packets and follows the state of the master group. Both the master and subordinate VRRP groups can forward service traffic.

You cannot assign the same master VRRP group name to different IPv6 VRRP groups on a device.

An IPv6 VRRP group cannot be both a master group and a subordinate group. The vrrp ipv6 vrid name and vrrp ipv6 vrid follow commands are mutually exclusive.

Examples

# Configure IPv6 VRRP group 1 as a master VRRP group and assign master group name abc to it.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 2
[Sysname-Vlan-interface2] vrrp ipv6 vrid 1 name abc
