Introduction

This document provides VRRP configuration examples.

Prerequisites

This document is not restricted to specific software or hardware versions.

The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of VRRP, STP, IPsec, and Ethernet link aggregation.

Example: Configuring a single IPv4 VRRP group

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, configure a VRRP group on Device A and Device B as the gateway for Host A to meet the following requirements:

·     Device A operates as the master to forward packets from Host A to the external network.

·     If Device A or its uplink interface fails, Host A can access the external network through Device B.

Figure 1 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     For Device A to become the master when it recovers from a failure, configure the preemptive mode for the VRRP group.

·     For Device A to decrease its priority and become a backup when its uplink interface fails, configure VRRP tracking on Device A.

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

Restrictions and guidelines

When you configure a single VRRP group, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     The virtual IP address of a VRRP group cannot be any of the following addresses:

¡     All-zero address (0.0.0.0).

¡     Broadcast address (255.255.255.255).

¡     Loopback address.

¡     IP address of other than Class A, Class B, and Class C.

¡     Invalid IP address (for example, 0.0.0.1).

·     For Host A to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IP addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv4 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For a VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     Removal of the VRRP group on the IP address owner causes IP address collision. To avoid a collision, change the IP address of the interface on the IP address owner before you remove the VRRP group from the interface.

·     Configure the same virtual IP addresses for each device in the VRRP group.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

Example: Configuring multiple IPv4 VRRP groups

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 2, configure two VRRP groups on Device A and Device B as gateways for internal hosts to meet the following requirements:

·     Device A operates as the master of VRRP group 1 to forward packets from Area A, and Device B operates as the master of VRRP group 2 to forward packets from Area B. When one of the devices fails, the other device provides gateway service for both areas.

·     If the uplink interface of one device fails, hosts can access the external network through the other device.

Figure 2 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

·     To avoid loops between Device A, Device B, and the Layer 2 switches, use the spanning tree feature to block a port in the two VRRP groups.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure multiple VRRP groups, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     The virtual IP address of a VRRP group cannot be any of the following addresses:

¡     All-zero address (0.0.0.0).

¡     Broadcast address (255.255.255.255).

¡     Loopback address.

¡     IP address of other than Class A, Class B, and Class C.

¡     Invalid IP address (for example, 0.0.0.1).

·     For the hosts in both areas to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses for each VRRP group are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IP addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv4 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For a VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     Removal of the VRRP group on the IP address owner causes IP address collision. To avoid a collision, change the IP address of the interface on the IP address owner before you remove the VRRP group from the interface.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

·     Make sure the following configurations are the same on the members of a VRRP group:

¡     Number of virtual IP addresses.

¡     Virtual IP addresses.

¡     Advertisement interval.

Example: Configuring IPv4 VRRP load balancing

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 3, configure a load-balanced VRRP group on Device A, Device B, and Device C as the gateway for the hosts to meet the following requirements:

·     Packets from the hosts are load balanced among the devices.

·     If one device fails, hosts can access the external network through the other devices.

Figure 3 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

·     For traffic to be switched to the other two devices when the uplink interface of one device fails, configure VF tracking on Device A, Device B, and Device C. When the uplink interface of one device fails, the weights of the VFs (including the AVF) on the device decrease by the specified value.

·     For the failed device to become the master when it recovers, configure the preemptive mode for the VRRP group.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure VRRP load balancing, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     The virtual IP address of a VRRP group cannot be any of the following addresses:

¡     All-zero address (0.0.0.0).

¡     Broadcast address (255.255.255.255).

¡     Loopback address.

¡     IP address of other than Class A, Class B, and Class C.

¡     Invalid IP address (for example, 0.0.0.1).

·     For the hosts to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IP addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv4 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For a VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     In load balancing mode, the virtual IP address of a VRRP group cannot be the IP address of any interface in the VRRP group. Otherwise, VRRP load balancing cannot operate correctly.

·     If the uplink interface of the VF owner fails, an LVF must take over as the AVF. The switchover occurs when the weight of the VF owner drops below the lower limit of failure. This requires the reduced weight for the VF owner to be higher than 245.

·     Configure the same virtual IP addresses for each device in the VRRP group.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

The output shows that when the uplink interface of Device A fails, the weights of the VFs on Device A drop below the lower limit of failure. All VFs on Device A transit to Initialized state and cannot forward traffic. The VF for MAC address 000f-e2ff-0011 on Device C becomes the AVF to forward traffic.

4.     Verify that the VF for virtual MAC address 000f-e2ff-0011 is removed from Device C when the timeout timer (about 1800 seconds) expires. The VF no longer forwards the packets destined for the MAC address.

Example: Configuring a single IPv6 VRRP group

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 4, configure an IPv6 VRRP group on Device A and Device B as the gateway for hosts in Area A to meet the following requirements:

·     Device A operates as the master to forward packets from the hosts in Area A to the external network.

·     If Device A or its uplink interface fails, the hosts in Area A can access the external network through Device B.

Figure 4 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     For Device A to become the master when it recovers from a failure, configure the preemptive mode for the VRRP group.

·     For Device A to decrease its priority and become a backup when its uplink interface fails, configure VRRP tracking on Device A.

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

·     To avoid loops between Device A, Device B, and the Layer 2 switches, use the spanning tree feature to block a port in the IPv6 VRRP group.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure a single IPv6 VRRP group, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     For the hosts in Area A to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IPv6 address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IPv6 addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv6 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For an IPv6 VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     Removal of the IPv6 VRRP group on the IP address owner causes IP address collision. To avoid a collision, change the IP address of the interface on the IP address owner before you remove the VRRP group from the interface.

·     Configure the same virtual IPv6 addresses for each device in the IPv6 VRRP group.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the IPv6 VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

Example: Configuring multiple IPv6 VRRP groups

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 5, configure two IPv6 VRRP groups on Device A and Device B as gateways for internal hosts to meet the following requirements:

·     Device A operates as the master of IPv6 VRRP group 1 to forward packets from Area A. Device B operates as the master of IPv6 VRRP group 2 to forward packets from Area B.

·     When one device or its uplink interface fails, the other device provides gateway service for both areas.

Figure 5 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

·     For Device A or Device B to decrease its priority and become a backup in an IPv6 VRRP group when the uplink interface of the device fails, configure VRRP tracking on both devices.

·     To avoid loops between Device A, Device B, and the Layer 2 switches, use the spanning tree feature to block a port in each IPv6 VRRP group.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure multiple IPv6 VRRP groups, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     For the hosts in both areas to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses for each VRRP group are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IPv6 address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IPv6 addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv6 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For an IPv6 VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     Removal of the IPv6 VRRP group on the IP address owner causes IP address collision. To avoid a collision, change the IPv6 address of the interface on the IP address owner before you remove the VRRP group from the interface.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

·     Make sure the following configurations are the same on the members of an IPv6 VRRP group:

¡     Number of virtual IPv6 addresses.

¡     Virtual IPv6 addresses.

¡     Advertisement interval.

Example: Configuring IPv6 VRRP load balancing

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 6, configure a load-balanced VRRP group on Device A, Device B, and Device C as the gateway for the hosts to meet the following requirements:

·     Packets from the hosts are load balanced among the devices.

·     If one device fails, hosts can access the external network through the other devices.

Figure 6 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

·     For traffic to be switched to the other two devices when the uplink interface of one device fails, configure VF tracking on Device A, Device B, and Device C. When the uplink interface of one device fails, the weights of the VFs (including the AVF) on the device decrease by the specified value.

·     For the failed device to become the master when it recovers, configure the preemptive mode for the VRRP group.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure IPv6 VRRP load balancing, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     For the hosts to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IPv6 address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IPv6 addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv6 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For an IPv6 VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     In load balancing mode, the virtual IPv6 addresses of a VRRP group cannot be the IPv6 addresses of any interfaces in the VRRP group. Otherwise, VRRP load balancing cannot operate correctly.

·     If the uplink of the VF owner fails, an LVF must take over as the AVF. The switchover occurs when the weight of the VF owner drops below the lower limit of failure. This requires the reduced weight for the VF owner to be higher than 245.

·     Configure the same virtual IPv6 addresses for each device in the IPv6 VRRP group.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the IPv6 VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

The output shows that the weights of the VFs on Device A drop below the lower limit of failure when the uplink interface Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 of Device A fails. All VFs on Device A transit to Initialized state and cannot forward traffic. The VF for MAC address 000f-e2ff-0011 on Device C becomes the AVF to forward traffic.

4.     Verify that the VF for virtual MAC address 000f-e2ff-0011 is removed from Device C when the timeout timer (about 1800 seconds) expires. The VF no longer forwards the packets destined for the MAC address.

Example: Configuring VRRP with Ethernet link aggregation

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 7, Device A, Device B, and L2switch are connected to one another through aggregate links to improve link reliability.

Configure a VRRP group on Device A and Device B as the gateway for the hosts in Area A to meet the following requirements:

·     Device A operates as the master to forward packets from the hosts in Area A to the external network.

·     If the uplink interface of Device A fails, the hosts in Area A can access the external network through Device B.

Figure 7 Network diagram

 

Analysis

To meet the network requirements, you must perform the following tasks:

·     For Device A to become the master when it recovers from a failure, configure the preemptive mode for the VRRP group.

·     For Device A to decrease its priority and become a backup when its uplink interface fails, configure VRRP tracking on Device A.

·     To avoid frequent role change in the VRRP group, set a preemption delay.

·     To avoid loops between Device A, Device B, and L2switch, use the spanning tree feature to block a port in the VRRP group.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure VRRP with Ethernet link aggregation, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·     For the hosts in Area A to access the external network, make sure the following IP addresses are on the same subnet:

¡     The virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

¡     The downlink interface IP addresses of the VRRP group members.

·     IPv4 VRRP can use VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 (default version). For a VRRP group to operate correctly, make sure the VRRP versions on all devices in the VRRP group are the same.

·     Removal of the VRRP group on the IP address owner causes IP address collision. To avoid a collision, change the IP address of the interface on the IP address owner before you remove the VRRP group from the interface.

·     Configure the same virtual IP addresses for each device in the VRRP group.

·     Make sure the decreased priority of the master is lower than the priority of all the other devices in the VRRP group. Another device in the group can then be elected as the master.

·     You must configure the same aggregation mode on both ends of an aggregate link.

·     Deleting an aggregate interface also deletes the aggregation group. At the same time, the member ports of the aggregation group, if any, leave the aggregation group.

·     You cannot assign a port to a Layer 2 aggregation group if any of the following features are configured on the port:

¡     MAC authentication. (See XXX Series Security Configuration Guide.)

¡     Port security. (See XXX Series Security Configuration Guide.)

¡     802.1X. (See XXX Series Security Configuration Guide.)

¡     Association between AC and cross-connect. (See XXX Series MPLS Configuration Guide.)

¡     Association between AC and VSI. (See XXX Series VXLAN Configuration Guide.)
