Create a Virtual Router
To enable VRRP, you must create a Virtual Router on a physical or VLAN interface. In FTOS, a VRRP 
Group is identified by the Virtual Router Identifier (VRID).
Starting in release 8.4.1.0, you can configure a VRRP group on an interface that belongs to a non-default 
VRF instance.
Prerequisite: The interface on which you create the virtual interface must be enabled and configured with 
a primary IP address.
To enable a Virtual Router, use the following command in the INTERFACE mode. To delete a VRRP 
group, use the 
no vrrp-group
 
vrid
 command in the INTERFACE mode.
