Configuring VRRP for the interface

You can manage and configure VRRP parameters for the routing interface.

To configure the VRRP Interface:

1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose IP Routing > VRRP.

The VRRP dialog box opens with the Globals tab displayed.

2. Click the Interface tab.

The Interface tab opens.

3. Click the HoldDownTimer text box, and enter the desired number of seconds for the timer.

The HoldDownState field displays active when the Hold Down Timer is counting down and preemption will occur; the text box displays dormant when preemption is not pending. When the Hold Down Timer is active, the HoldDownTimeRemaining field displays the seconds remaining before preemption.

Use the OperAction field to manually override the delay timer and to force preemption. When you click the heading, an arrow appears. Click the text box, and a list opens. Choose preemption to preempt the timer, or choose none to allow the timer to keep working.

4. Click Apply.
