• Use the no form of this command to delete the virtual router group.

• The configuration parameters can be modified at any time, but will not have any effect on the virtual 

routers in the group until the virtual routers are enabled again. To apply the group default value to the 
virtual routers in a group, you must first disable the virtual router group, then apply the group default 
value using the vrrp group set command and enable the virtual router group again.

• If any of the virtual routers in the group are running with their configured value, then that value will 

take priority over the new default value. To override the configured value with the new default value, 
you must first disable the virtual router group, then override the configured value by using the vrrp 
group set command with the override option and enable the virtual router group again. 

• When a virtual router group is deleted, the virtual routers assigned to the group become unassigned. 

However, this does not have any impact on the virtual routers.
