Troubleshooting VRRP

You can locate VRRP problems through the configuration and debugging information. Here are some

possible symptoms you might meet and the corresponding troubleshooting methods.

Symptom 1: Frequent prompts of configuration errors on the console

This indicates that incorrect VRRP packets are received. It may be because of the inconsistent

configuration of the switches within the VRRP group, or the attempt of other devices sending illegal

VRRP packets.

z

The first possible fault can be solved through modifying the configuration.

z

The second possibility is caused by the malicious attempt of some devices; non-technical

measures should be taken to solve the problem.

Symptom 2: More than one master existing within a VRRP group

There are also 2 reasons. One is short coexistence of many masters, which is normal and needs no

manual intervention. Another is long coexistence of many masters, which may be caused because the

original master and other member switches in a VRRP group cannot receive VRRP packets from each

other, or receive some illegal packets.

To solve such a problem:

z

An attempt should be made to ping among these masters.

z

If such an attempt fails, check the connectivity between related devices.

z

If they can be pinged, check VRRP configuration.

z

For the configuration of a VRRP group, complete consistency for the number of virtual IP

addresses, each virtual IP address, timer interval and authentication type configured on each

member switch must be guaranteed.

Symptom 3: VRRP state of a switch changing repeatedly

Such problems occur when the VRRP group timer interval is too short. They can be solved through

prolonging the interval or configuring the preemption delay period.
