Usage Guidelines

After you run the command, the current device works as the standby device, which brings about the following effects:

when the VGMP groups on the active and standby devices have the same priority, and no VRRP backup group is configured, if you have configured the function to modify the OSPF, OSPFv3, or BGP costs based on the HRP state, the cost values increase after you run the command.
when the VGMP groups on the active and standby devices have the same priority, and no VRRP backup group is configured, if you have configured hrp track vlan on the device, the VLAN under monitoring is prohibited to forward packets.

If the hrp standby-device command and VRRP group are both configured on a device, the VRRP group determines the device status, and the hrp standby-device command configuration does not take effect. Therefore, if a VRRP group is configured, you are not advised to run the hrp standby-device command.

Example

# Configure the current device as the standby device.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] hrp standby-device
