Synchronisation of the virtual routers

Up until the current configuration stage, two virtual routers were created respectively on each of the bintec RT1202™ (access to the local network and access to the Internet). The status of both routers must be synchronised per gateway. The following configuration step shall ensure that virtual router 1 always has the same status as virtual router 2. This step must be configured identically on both bintec RT1202™ . For this, go to the following menu:

  1. Go to Routing -> BRRP -> VR Synchronisation -> New.

Routing -> BRRP -> VR Synchronisation -> New

Proceed as follows in order to synchronise the routers:

  1. Under Monitoring VR/Interface select the Virtual Router ID 1 .

  2. Under Monitoring VR/Interface select the Virtual Router ID 2 .

  3. Confirm with OK.

Following that, synchronise the second router by selecting Routing -> BRRP -> VR Synchronisation -> New.

  1. Under Monitoring VR/Interface select the Virtual Router ID 2 .

  2. Under Monitoring VR/Interface select the Virtual Router ID 1 .

  3. Confirm with OK.

Results:

Routing -> BRRP -> VR Synchronisation -> New

This concludes the configuration. To perform a bootable backup of the configuration, exit the GUI™ with Save configuration and confirm with OK.
