interfaces <interface> vrrp vrrp-group <group-id> sync-group <group>

Assigns an interface to a VRRP sync group on a router.

set interfaces interface vrrp vrrp-group group-id sync-group group
delete interfaces interface vrrp vrrp-group group-id sync-group
show interfaces interface vrrp vrrp-group group-id sync-group
interface
The interface type and identifier. For detailed keywords and arguments that can be specified as interfaces, refer to Supported Dataplane Interfaces.

Configuration mode


interfaces interface {
    vrrp {
        vrrp-group group-id {
            sync-group group
        }
    }
}

Use this command to assign an interface to a VRRP sync group on a router.

Interfaces in a sync group are synchronized such that, if one of the interfaces in the group fails over to backup, all interfaces in the group fail over to backup.

For example, in many cases, if one interface on a master router fails, the whole router fails over to a backup router. By assigning all the interfaces on the master to a sync group, the failure of one interface triggers a failover of all the interfaces in the sync group to the backup that is configured for the interface.

Use the set form of the command to assign an interface to a VRRP sync group on a router.

Use the delete form of the command to remove an interface from a VRRP sync group on a router.

Use the show form of the command to display the VRRP sync group on a router for an interface.
