Adding IPv6 virtual routers to an interface

Adding IPv6 virtual routers to an interface

Use the following command to add an IPv6 VRRP virtual router to the port20 interface of a FortiGate. This VRRP virtual router has a virtual router ID of 220, uses IP address 2001:db8:1::12 and has a priority of 255. Since this is the highest priority, this interface is configured to be the primary router of the VRRP domain with ID number 220.

config system interface

edit port20

config ipv6

set vrip6_link_local <link-local-ipv6-address>

config vrrp6

edit 220

set vrip 2001:db8:1::12

set priority 255

end
