VRRP without tracking

9.5 prevous versions or 9.6 without tracking

🚀

Best Practice: (configure next section)

  1. Configure IPSLA VRRP rule only on EC1(Primary).
  2. Set IPSLA Metric change to +30 for the IPSLA rule. (+30 is needed for previous configured sections replace value as needed for your environment)
  3. Set EC1’s metric to 50. Route Redis Configuration should already be doing this for EC1 (primary) devices
  4. Do not configure IPSLA on EC2. Set EC2’s metric to 55(70).(Note: this should be 70 if you properly configured the Route Redis

LAN SIDE CONFIG

❗️

VRRP only supported on LAN interfaces

Spoke VRRP

VRRP HUB

For hubs the same method applies only Both EC1 and EC2 will have the same routing metric for Peer Priority.

Typically HUBs are BGP/OSFP type links and VRRP will not apply.

To keep things simple you can use the same +30 on EC1 Rule Below
