Description

We add a new irb 3 in the same VRRP group ID 10 with an existing irb 6.

The VRRP group ID (10) had problems passing traffic intermittently on the new irb 3 IRB interface.

 

Track route        State      Cost   Interface Group  Cfg  Run  VR State

0.0.0.0/0          up           50   irb.6        10  100  100  master  

0.0.0.0/0          up           50   irb.3        10  100  100  master  

 

Symptoms

The devices behind irb 3 were not responding over the network. When irb 3 is bounced (disable/delete disable) normal communications was restored.

 



Solution

Our suggestion is to configure only 1 interface to each VRRP group because of the functionality of the VRRP, If on a device we have 2 interfaces configured in the same VRRP group and one device goes down, both interfaces go down and the failover is wrongly done to the other device.
