admin-vrrp6 vrid

Function

The admin-vrrp6 vrid command configures a VRRP6 group as an mVRRP6 group.

The undo admin-vrrp6 vrid command deletes the specified mVRRP6 group.

By default, no mVRRP6 group is configured.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

An mVRRP6 group can be bound to common VRRP6 groups. Once bound, the mVRRP6 group determines the status of the bound VRRP6 groups based on the binding. mVRRP6 is used when multiple VRRP6 groups coexist, decreasing the number of VRRP Advertisement packets sent and minimizing network bandwidth consumption.

mVRRP6 provides the following functions:

An mVRRP6 group used as the gateway can process both VRRP6 Advertisement packets and service packets.
An mVRRP6 group that is not used as the gateway can only process VRRP6 Advertisement packets.

Precautions

An mVRRP6 group cannot be bound to another mVRRP6 group.
