Need help for vrrp protocols in cisco packet tracer

ELIF_

Hello, I reeally need help and I don't have so much time to finish my project.This is a part of my project, I used ospf rouiting protocols while configuring other routers. I don't know how to configure VRRP protocolS.Is there anybody who can help me to configure the main and redundant router?

I read that VRRP isn't used with Packet Tracer but after version 6.0, HSRP is used.

Whether or not Packet Tracer supports VRRP... I'm not really too sure.
I'm not going to do your homework for you, but the basic setup is:

(config-if)#vrrp <group> description <text>
(config-if)#vrrp <group> <ip address>


You can tune it to your own liking with priority settings, preemption, authentication, object tracking, timers, etc...

You be the judge.

Here is a link with specific details that you can use for reference.

Good luck with your project. Looks pretty, and that's half the battle lol.

You may have gotten more response if this thread was underneath one of the Cisco sub-forums.

Here is a link for HSRP configuration, if VRRP isn't supported.

As well as GLBP:

I hope all of this helps you out.

Thank you for the links but I am really confused and I can't do the rouiting between main router and redundant router track because track commands area invalid. Could you please help me?Is there anyone who can send me a picture of configuration commands ?

ELIF,

I checked my copies; version 5.33 does not include VRRP commands, PT 6 does have HSRP. If running 5x, you'll need to update to version 6 for router redundancy support.

I use packet tracer 6.0.1 version but I can't configure the routers..Now I only need HSRP commands.Can you please help me?This is the last part and I am going to finish my project after hsrp configurations.



I think that hsrp commands aren't invalid with serial interfaces so I changed the topology.

MosGuy

Configuration depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Googling for "hsrp packet tracer" brings up some good tutorials/videos. You are correct, HSRP can't be setup on WAN interfaces.

I used ospf interface cost commands and it's okey now.Thank you But I still can't do the configuration a switch between two routers
