Re: How to configure / disable / enable a specific single VRRP instance

1) Regarding the exception you have mentioned of reload the master first
for adds and the backup first for removes - I am wondering how can I
control it while programming our router SW? I mean, I can't force / control
a user to make a reload on another router in case my router should not be
the first...
2) Anyway, I am still not sure how to disable a specific virtual router
instance. Simply set its state to FAULT in the config file and reload
(pkill -HUP)?

Thanks!
