4.2 VRRP Configuration  
Select the VRRP menu item to enter the VRRP configuration. There are two submenus  
which allows to configure up to two instances of VRRP. VRRP protocol (Virtual Router Redun-  
dancy Protocol) allows you to transfer packet routing from the main router to a backup router in  
case the main router fails. (This can be used to provide a wireless cellular backup to a primary  
wired router in critical applications.) If the Enable VRRP is checked, you may set the following  
parameters.  
Item  
Description  
Protocol Version  
Virtual Server IP Address  
Choose version of the VRRP (VRRPv2 or VRRPv3).  
This parameter sets the virtual server IP address. This ad-  
dress must be the same for both the primary and backup  
routers. Devices on the LAN will use this address as their  
default gateway IP address.  
Virtual Server ID  
Host Priority  
This parameter distinguishes one virtual router on the net-  
work from another. The main and backup routers must use  
the same value for this parameter.  
The active router with highest priority set by the parameter  
Host Priority, is the main router. According to RFC 2338, the  
main router should have the highest possible priority – 255.  
The backup router(s) have a priority in the range 1 – 254  
(default value is 100). A priority value of 0 is not allowed.  
Table 19: VRRP configuration  
You may set the Check connection flag in the second part of the window to enable au-  
tomatic test messages for the cellular network. In some cases, the mobile WAN connection  
could still be active but the router will not be able to send data over the cellular network. This  
feature is used to verify that data can be sent over the PPP connection and supplements  
the normal VRRP message handling. The currently active router (main/backup) will send test  
messages to the defined Ping IP Address at periodic time intervals (Ping Interval) and wait for  
a reply (Ping Timeout). If the router does not receive a response to the Ping command, it will  
retry up to the number of times specified by the Ping Probes parameter. After that time, it will  
switch itself to a backup router until the PPP connection is restored.  
You may use the DNS server of the mobile carrier as the destination IP address for the test  
messages (Pings).  
The Enable traffic monitoring option can be used to reduce the number of messages that  
are sent to test the PPP connection. When this parameter is set, the router will monitor the  
interface for any packets different from a ping. If a response to the packet is received within the  
timeout specified by the Ping Timeout parameter, then the router knows that the connection is  
still active. If the router does not receive a response within the timeout period, it will attempt to  
test the mobile WAN connection using standard Ping commands.
