Defines which VRRP version should be used. Supported are VRRPv2, VRRPv3, or VRRPv2 and VRRPv3. IPv6 is only supported with VRRPv3. IPv4 is supported in both VRRPv2 and VRRPv3.
The v2+v3 mode is intended as a transitional solution for the move from VRRPv2 to VRRPv3 operation under IPv4. It doubles the packet volume, since a virtual router configured in this way sends advertisements in both protocol versions.
A virtual router configured to use one protocol version will discard advertisements from other routers if they have the wrong protocol version, it will be output to the VRRP packet trace and add an entry to the event log table.
