Switch Feature Overview
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)
VRRP provides hosts with redundant routers in the network topology without 
any need for the hosts to reconfigure or know that there are multiple routers. 
If the primary (master) router fails, a secondary router assumes control and 
continues to use the virtual router IP (VRIP) address.
VRRP Route Interface Tracking extends the capability of VRRP to allow 
tracking of specific route/interface IP states within the router that can alter 
the priority level of a virtual router for a VRRP group.
For information about configuring VRRP settings, see "Configuring VRRP" 
Tunnel and Loopback Interfaces
Dell Networking series switches support the creation, deletion, and 
management of tunnel and loopback interfaces. Tunnel interfaces facilitate 
the transition of IPv4 networks to IPv6 networks. A loopback interface is 
always expected to be up, so you can configure a stable IP address that other 
network devices use to contact or identify the switch.
For information about configuring tunnel and loopback interfaces, see
