Configuration procedure
1. Configure Router A:
# Specify an IP address for Router A.
<RouterA> system-view
[RouterA] interface ethernet 1/1
[RouterA-Ethernet1/1] ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
# Create VRRP group 1 on Ethernet 1/1 and set its virtual IP address to 10.1.1.111.
[RouterA-Ethernet1/1] vrrp vrid 1 virtual-ip 10.1.1.111
# Assign Router A a higher priority than Router B in VRRP group 1, so Router A can become the
master.
[RouterA-Ethernet1/1] vrrp vrid 1 priority 110
# Configure Router A to operate in preemptive mode, so it can become the master whenever it
operates correctly, and set the preemption delay to 5 seconds to avoid frequent status switchover.
[RouterA-Ethernet1/1] vrrp vrid 1 preempt-mode delay 5
2. Configure Router B:
# Specify an IP address for Router A.
<RouterB> system-view
[RouterB] interface ethernet 1/1
[RouterB-Ethernet1/1] ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0
# Create VRRP group 1 on Ethernet 1/1 and set its virtual IP address to 10.1.1.111.
[RouterB-Ethernet1/1] vrrp vrid 1 virtual-ip 10.1.1.111
# Configure the priority of Router B in VRRP group 1 as 100.
[RouterB-Ethernet1/1] vrrp vrid 1 priority 100
# Configure Router B to operate in preemptive mode, and set the preemption delay to 5 seconds.
[RouterB-Ethernet1/1] vrrp vrid 1 preempt-mode delay 5
3. Verify the configuration:
# Ping Host B from Host A. (Details not shown.)
# Display detailed information about VRRP group 1 on Router A.
[RouterA-Ethernet1/1] display vrrp verbose
