Create HSRP Group Window

This window appears when you select a switch and click Create in the Router Redundancy window. Use it to specify:

Follow these steps:

  1. In the Number field, enter a number that will uniquely identify the HSRP group.
  2. Optional: In the Name field, enter a text description of the group.
  3. In the Virtual IP Address field, enter an IP address that can be shared by members of the group.
  4. In the Priority field, enter a number that designates the priority of the switch in the group.
  5. In the Interface field, enter the name of the routable interface that the switch uses.
  6. Check the Pre-emption box if you want the switch to take over from a lower-priority switch when it comes online.
  7. Click OK.
