VRRP Configuration Examples

This section contains several useful VRRP configuration examples

Basic Setup

This is the basic VRRP configuration example. It should not be used on real time networks.
Any message originated from client to internet will be sent to R1 router.
According to this configuration, as long as the master, R1, is functional, all traffic destined to the external network gets directed to R1. But as soon as R1 fails, R2 takes over as the master and starts handling packets forwarded to the interface associated with IP(R1).
