Summary
The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a computer networking protocol that provides for automatic assignment of available Internet Protocol (IP) routers to participating hosts. This increases the availability and reliability of routing paths via automatic default gateway selections on an IP sub-network. This chapter is an overview of the VRRP function in RUT routers.
VRRP configuration
The VRRP LAN configuration settings section
[[File:{{{file_config}}}]]
| Field | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Enable | yes | no; default: no | Turns VRRP on or off. |
| IP address | ip; default: 192.168.1.253 | Virtual IP address for the router LAN's VRRP cluster. |
| Virtual ID | integer [1..255]; default: 1 | The Virtual Router Identifier (VRID) is a field in the VRRP packet IP header used to identify the virtual router in the VRRP cluster. Routers with identical IDs will be grouped in the same VRRP cluster. |
| Priority | integer [1..255]; default: 100 | VRRP priority of the virtual router. Higher values equal higher priority. The router with the highest priority is considered to be the Master router while other routers are Backup routers.

Check Internet connection
The Check Internet connection section
[[File:{{{file_connection}}}]]
| field name | value | description |
|---|---|---|
| Enable | yes | no; Default: no | Toggles internet connection checking ON or OFF |
| Ping IP address | ip; Default: " " | A host to send ICMP packets to |
| Ping interval | integer; Default: 10 | Time interval between two Pings (in seconds |
| Ping timeout (sec) | integer [1..9999]; Default: 1 | Response timeout value |
| Ping packet size | integer [0..1000]; Default: " " | ICMP packet's size |
| Ping retry count | integer [1..9999]; Default: " " | Failed Ping attempt count before determining that the connection is lost |
