Description

When configuring Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) on Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, configure whether an interface accepts packets destined for the virtual IP address:

• accept-data—Allow the interface to accept packets destined for the virtual IP address.
• no-accept-data—Prohibit the interface from accepting packets destined for the virtual IP address.

Default

If the accept-data statement is not configured, and if the master router owns the virtual IP address, the master router responds to ICMP message requests only.
