By default, adver-interval is configured to be 1.
Configuring Switch to 
Track a Specified 
Interface
VRRP interface track function has expanded the backup function. Backup is 
provided not only to the interface where the virtual router resides, but also to 
some other malfunctioning switch interface. By implementing the following 
command you can track some interface.
If the interface which is tracked is Down, the priority of the switch including the 
interface will reduce automatically by the value specified by value-reduced, thus 
resulting in comparatively higher priorities of other switches within the virtual 
router, one of which will turn to Master switch so as to track this interface.
When the IP forwarding module (IFM) device is being monitored, the priority of 
the switch including the interface will increase automatically by the value specified 
by value-increased. When the interface or the IFM device of this interface is Down, 
the priority of the switch will decrease by the value specified by value-reduced, 
thus resulting in comparatively higher priorities of other switches within the virtual 
router, one of which will turn to Master switch so as to track this interface.
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view.
By default, value-reduced is taken 10 and value-increased is taken 2.
When the switch is an IP address owner, its interfaces cannot be tracked.
If the interface tracked is up again, the corresponding priority of the switch, 
including the interface, will be restored automatically
You can only track up to eight interfaces in one virtual router.
Displaying and 
debugging VRRP
After the above configuration, execute display command in any view to display 
the running of the VRRP configuration, and to verify the configuration. Execute 
debugging command in user view to debug VRRP configuration.
