> # VRRP for iSCSI and FCIP Services

> VRRP provides a redundant alternate path to the Gigabit Ethernet port for iSCSI and FCIP services. VRRP provides IP address failover protection to an alternate Gigabit Ethernet interface so the IP address is always available .

> All members of the VRRP groupmust be IP storage Gigabit Ethernet ports. VRRP group members can be one or more of the following interfaces:

> - One or more interfaces in the same IPS module or MPS-14/2 module
> - Interfaces across IPS modules or MPS-14/2 modules in one switch
> - Interfaces across IPS modules or MPS-14/2 modules in different switches
> - Gigabit Ethernet subinterfaces
> - Ethernet PortChannels and PortChannel subinterfaces

> Note You can configure no more than seven VRRP groups, both IPv4 and IPv6, on a Gigabit Ethernet interface, including the main interface and all subinterfaces.
