set protocols vrrp interface vrid interval
The set protocols vrrp interface vrid interval command sets the interval at which the VRRP device sends VRRP advertisement packets.
NOTE: This command applies to both VRRPv2 and VRRPv3 configuration. |
Command Syntax
set protocols vrrp interface <interface-name> vrid <virtual-router-id> interval <interval-value>
Parameter
Parameter | Description |
interface <interface-name> | Specifies the Layer 3 interface name of VRRP device. The value could be the VLAN interface name, the routed interface or the sub-interface name. The value is a string. |
vrid <virtual-router-id> | Specifies the VRID of a VRRP group. The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 254. |
interval <interval-value> | Specifies the interval at which the VRRP device sends VRRP advertisement packets. The value is an integer, in seconds. For VRRPv2, the value ranges from 1 to 255. For VRRPv3, the value ranges from 1 to 40. The default value is 4 seconds for both VRRPv2 and VRRPv3. |
Usage Guidelines
If a larger interval is used, a backup device in the same VRRP group will not be able to detect the fault on the master in a timely fashion and can potentially cause packet loss. If a smaller interval is used, system resources are occupied. It is therefore recommended to set the interval based on actual network performance.
NOTE: The configurations of the interval of sending VRRP advertisement packets on both devices of VRRP group must be the same. |
Example
- Set the interval of sending VRRP advertisement to 5 seconds.
