VRRP fabric routing, secondary IPs and IPv6?

[Frank]

Now that fabric routing has caught my attention, I have a couple of questions (for 16.2+, I don't think I can run 21+ on my BD8806)

1) Does it work with secondary IP addresses (config snippet below)?
configure vlan FOO ipaddress 10.0.0.252/24
configure vlan FOO add secondary ipaddress 192.168.0.252/24
create vrrp vlan FOO vrid 1
configure vrrp vlan FOO vrid 1 add 10.0.0.254
configure vrrp vlan FOO vrid 1 add 192.168.0.254
2) Does it work with IPv6 addresses?

3) The examples show fabric routing setup with different priorities for the two routers/switches involved. What's the advantage of doing that? Is it just to define the master for direct pings?

Thank you (and Happy New Year!)

Hi Frank,

Yes, my customers use the secondary IP address and IPv6 in VRRP without any problem.

Frank,

I don't see any reason why a secondary IPv4 or IPv6 wouldn't work. Different priorities just forces the master to be on one or the other instead of relying on the IP's. As a FYI the VRRP master is still responsible for answering all ARPs.
