  • 1.  VRRP Master

    Posted 02-04-2013 12:03

    Hello,

     

    I am facing  issue with VRRP,  I have 2 No's 8208 switch connected to each other with a trunk port. The issue is my both core switches 8208 are in  Master state.

     

     

    Below is the configuration for the VRRP

     

    CORE-1:

     

    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.130/25 vrrp-group 122 virtual-address 192.168.121.129
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.130/25 vrrp-group 122 priority 200
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.130/25 vrrp-group 122 preempt
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.130/25 vrrp-group 122 accept-data
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.130/25 vrrp-group 122 interval 3

     

    CORE-2

     

    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.131/25 vrrp-group 122 virtual-address 192.168.121.129
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.131/25 vrrp-group 122 priority 110
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.131/25 vrrp-group 122 preempt
    set interfaces vlan unit 122 family inet address 192.168.121.131/25 vrrp-group 122 accept-data

    Can you provide the output of "show spanning-tree interfaces x" for the port linking the two switches together?

    hi,

     

    I assume you have IP connectivity (ping) in vlan 122 between the switches ? It would be good to see show vrrp extensive output from both nodes. 

     

    Do you have firewall filter to protect the RE ? Does is allow VRRP ?

    hi,

     

    I was not aware the VRRP timers must match, but the statistics is helpful:  'Bad advertisement timer received'. Please make the interval equal to fix the problem.

    Gotta thank you for pointing out the timers had to match. Solved it for me!

    Hello,

     

    solved the issue by removing the command advertise-interval 3, i also noticed and tried to remove by 1 vlan and it worked as a master and backup so i removed for all the interface vlan.

     

    I have 1 question how can we track the vlan interface can you write a command for me , i am trying to track a vlan interface but could'nt.

     

     

    Thanks for everybody who replied i will give KUDOS.

    hi,

     

    good it works. I don't think it makes sense (or is possible) to track interface vlan. Interface vlan will be always UP till there is any egress port for it. Please consider if it makes sense to track any physical port.
