Does VRRP work on SRX correctly?

[mainstreet]

Hi
Due to our SRX240's being physically seperated and therefore the CTRL and DATA link cannot be connected locally for HA, I would like to know whether VRRP will work on the SRX with 9.6R1 i.e

       ______VRRP interface______
      /                                                       \
     /                                                         \
  GE-0/0/5-------switch1--------GE-0/0/5
FIREWALL1                           FIREWALL2
  GE-0/0/6-------switch2--------GE-0/0/6
    \                                                           /
     \ ______VRRP interface______/

Anyone tried this at all?

Cheers

Mark

I tested one link and it worked.

Interface {

ge-0/0/1 {
    unit 0 {
        family inet {
            address 10.210.1.253/24 {
                vrrp-group 1 {
                    virtual-address 10.210.1.254;
                    priority 111;
                    accept-data;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

best regards

A kudo would be cool if you think I earned it.
