Routing

Hi, 

Please see the below config. Why is the vrrp not running in two juniper routers? Thank you

 

PN# run show vrrp brief
VRRP is not running

 

 

PN# run show configuration | display set | match 12.1.1.1
set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.1/30 vrrp-group 1 virtual-address 12.1.1.12
set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.1/30 vrrp-group 1 priority 110
set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.1/30 vrrp-group 1 accept-data
set interfaces em1 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.1/24

 

K# run show configuration | display set | match 12.1.1.2
set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.2/30 vrrp-group 1 virtual-address 12.1.1.12
set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.2/30 vrrp-group 1 priority 100
set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.2/30 vrrp-group 1 accept-data
set interfaces em1 unit 0 family inet address 12.1.1.2/24

Hi eesunj,

You are using em0 and em1 ports which are control links for a cluster/jsrpd.
Please try using physical ports.

hi

for me it seesm that the VIP address (.12)  does not belong to the network  12.1.1.0/30

the vip-adress is outside the /30 network

PS independent of teh fact that the em interfaces are RE-based and not PFE based, so maybe this is also a reason

Hi Thanks for your reply. After I changed interface and ip, vrrp can run, but it is down status. The two router are connected with 12.1.1.21/24 and 12.1.1.22/24. The ip address can ping each other. Please see below:

 

 

 

 

 

1. Change your em0 addresses to some other subnet

2. Bridge irb.0 between your two routers with a cable  

3. Upgrade to something higher than 12.1R1

Hi Folks,

This will help us with some insight on the observation,

 

Logs/Traceoptions: 
set protocols vrrp traceoptions file vrrp files 10 size 50m
set protocols vrrp traceoptions flag general
set protocols vrrp traceoptions flag packets
set protocols vrrp traceoptions flag state

 

Also, do a TCPdump on the interface connecting between them  and look for vrrp packets from peer on the both sides,

 

Also, look for extensive command for brief idea on PDU;s sent/received,

 

root@Backup> show vrrp extensive 
Interface: fe-0/0/0.0, Interface index :72, Groups: 1, Active :1
Interface VRRP PDU statistics
Advertisement sent :0 
Advertisement received :8890 
Packets received :8890 
No group match received :0 
Interface VRRP PDU error statistics
Invalid IPAH next type received :0 
Invalid VRRP TTL value received :0 
Invalid VRRP version received :0 
Invalid VRRP PDU type received :0 
Invalid VRRP authentication type received:0 
Invalid VRRP IP count received :0 
Invalid VRRP checksum received :0

 

You need to remove manual configuration from the em interfaces.  These are internal Junos interfaces and are not for use and manual configuration.

Hi Spuluka, Sorry for the delay since i had another project. The below are all interface the router has. so do you think which interface can be used for vrrp configuration? thank you

You don't seem to have any ethernet interfaces visible.  What type of device is this?

 

Use this to verify what is installed

or on a chassis device like the MX

Hi Folks,

For devices with dedicated management ports, Junos OS automatically configures the router’s management Ethernet interface, as either em0 or fxp0. You can use the show interfaces terse | match fxp0 or show interfaces terse | match em0 command to display management interface information.

 

To use the management Ethernet interface as a management port, you must configure its logical port, em0.0 or fxp0.0, with a valid IP address.

 

For PTX Series Packet Transport Routers, the Junos OS automatically creates the router’s management Ethernet interface, em0. To use em0 as an out-of-band management port, you must configure its logical port (for example, em0.0) with a valid IP address.

 

Please avoid enabling protocls on the router’s management Ethernet interface.

Take a look at this explanation for these interfaces

IRB Interfaces and RVI Functions and Other Technologies

IRB interfaces and RVIs are similar to switch virtual interfaces (SVIs) and bridge-group virtual interfaces (BVIs), which are supported on other vendors’ devices. They can also be combined with other functions:

• VRF is often used in conjunction with Layer 3 subinterfaces, allowing traffic on a single physical interface to be differentiated and associated with multiple virtual routers. For more information about VRF, see Understanding Virtual Routing Instances on EX Series Switches .
• For redundancy, you can combine an IRB interface or RVI with implementations of the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) in both bridging and virtual private LAN service (VPLS) environments. For more information about VRRP, see Understanding VRRP on EX Series Switches.
