As shown in Figure 1, DRNI virtualizes two devices into a distributed-relay (DR) system, which connects to the remote aggregation system through a multichassis aggregate link. To the remote aggregation system, the DR system is one device.

Figure 1 DRNI network model

The DR member devices are DR peers to each other. DRNI defines the following interface roles for each DR member device:

· DR interface—Layer 2 aggregate interface connected to the remote aggregation system. DR interfaces connected to the same remote aggregation system belong to one DR group. In Figure 1, Bridge-Aggregation 1 on Device A and Bridge-Aggregation 2 on Device B belong to the same DR group. DR interfaces in a DR group form a multichassis aggregate link.

· Intra-portal port (IPP)—Interface connected to the DR peer for internal control. Each DR member device has only one IPP. The IPPs of the DR member devices transmit DRNI protocol packets through the intra-portal link (IPL) established between them. A DR system has only one IPL.

DR member devices use a keepalive link to monitor each other's state. For more information about the keepalive mechanism, see "Keepalive and failover mechanism."

Roles of DR member devices

For features that require centralized traffic processing (for example, spanning tree), a DR member device is assigned the primary or secondary role based on its DR role priority. The secondary DR device passes the traffic of those features to the primary DR device for processing. If the DR member devices in a DR system have the same DR role priority, the device with the lower bridge MAC address is assigned the primary role.

DRCP

DRNI uses H3C proprietary Distributed Relay Control Protocol (DRCP) for multichassis link aggregation. DRCP runs on the IPL and uses distributed relay control protocol data units (DRCPDUs) to advertise the DRNI configuration out of IPPs and DR interfaces.

DRCP operating mechanism

DRNI-enabled devices use DRCPDUs for the following purposes:

· Exchange DRCPDUs through DR interfaces to determine whether they can form a DR system.

· Exchange DRCPDUs through IPPs to negotiate the IPL state.

DRCP timeout timers

DRCP uses a timeout mechanism to specify the amount of time that an IPP or DR interface must wait to receive DRCPDUs before it determines that the peer interface is down. This timeout mechanism provides the following timer options:

· Short DRCP timeout timer, which is fixed at 3 seconds. If this timer is used, the peer interface sends one DRCPDU every second.

· Long DRCP timeout timer, which is fixed at 90 seconds. If this timer is used, the peer interface sends one DRCPDU every 30 seconds.

Short DRCP timeout timer enables the DR member devices to detect a peer interface down event more quickly than the long DRCP timeout timer. However this benefit is at the expense of bandwidth and system resources.

Keepalive and failover mechanism

H3C provides proprietary keepalive mechanism to detect the availability of the DR member devices.

For the secondary DR device to monitor the state of the primary device, you must establish a Layer 3 keepalive link between the DR member devices.

The DR member devices periodically send keepalive packets over the keepalive link. The secondary DR device determines that the primary DR device is down if all the following conditions are met when the keepalive timeout timer expires:

· It has not received keepalive packets from the primary DR device. In this situation, the keepalive link is down.

· The IPL is down.

Then, the secondary DR device takes over.

If the keepalive link is down while the IPL is up, the DR member devices prompt you to check for keepalive link issues.

MAD mechanism

A multi-active collision occurs if the IPL goes down while the keepalive link is up. To avoid network issues, the secondary DR device sets all network interfaces to DRNI MAD DOWN state, except for the interfaces excluded from the MAD shutdown action by DRNI or IRF.

When the IPL comes up, the secondary DR device starts a delay timer and begins to restore table entries (including MAC address entries and ARP entries) from the primary DR device. When the delay timer expires, the secondary DR device brings up all network interfaces.

IMPORTANT:

For correct keepalive detection, you must exclude the interfaces used for keepalive detection from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD. If the IPP is a tunnel interface, you must exclude the traffic outgoing interface for the tunnel from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD.

DR system setup process

As shown in Figure 2, two devices perform the following operations to form a DR system:

1. Send DRCPDUs over the IPL to each other and compare the DRCPDUs to determine the DR system stackability and device roles:

a. Compare the DR system settings. The devices can form a DR system if they have consistent DR system settings.

b. Determine the device roles based on the DR role priority and the bridge MAC address.

c. Perform configuration consistency check. For more information, see "Configuration consistency check."

2. Send keepalive packets over the keepalive link to verify that the peer system is operating correctly.

3. Synchronize configuration data by sending DRCPDUs over the IPL. The configuration data includes MAC address entries and ARP entries.

Figure 2 DR system setup process

Configuration consistency check

During DR system setup, DR member devices exchange the configuration and perform configuration consistency check to verify their consistency in the following configurations:

· Type 1 configuration—Settings that affect traffic forwarding of the DR system. If an inconsistency in type 1 configuration is detected, the secondary DR device shuts down its DR interfaces.

· Type 2 configuration—Settings that affect only service features. If an inconsistency in type 2 configuration is detected, the secondary DR device disables the affected service features, but it does not shut down its DR interfaces.

To prevent interface flapping, the DR system performs configuration consistency check when half the data restoration interval has elapsed.

NOTE:

The data restoration interval specifies the maximum amount of time for the secondary DR device to synchronize data with the primary DR device during DR system setup. For more information, see "Setting the data restoration interval."

Type 1 configuration

Type 1 configuration consistency check is performed both globally and on DR interfaces. Table 1 and Table 2 show settings that type 1 configuration contains.

DRNI failure handling mechanisms

DR interface failure handling mechanism

When the DR interface of one DR member device fails, the DR system forwards traffic through the other DR member device.

As shown in Figure 3, Device A and Device B form a DR system, to which Device C is attached through a multichassis aggregation. If traffic to Device C arrives at Device B after the DR interface connected Device B to Device C has failed, the DR system forwards the traffic as follows:

1. Device B sends the traffic to Device A over the IPL.

2. Device A forwards the downlink traffic received from the IPL to Device C.

After the faulty DR interface comes up, Device B forwards traffic to Device C through the DR interface.

Figure 3 DR interface failure handling mechanism

IPL failure handling mechanism

As shown in Figure 4, multi-active collision occurs if the IPL goes down while the keepalive link is up. To avoid network issues, the secondary DR device sets all network interfaces to DRNI MAD DOWN state, except for the interfaces excluded from the MAD shutdown action by DRNI or IRF.

In this situation, the primary DR device forwards all traffic for the DR system.

When the IPP comes up, the secondary DR device does not bring up the network interfaces immediately. Instead, it starts a delay timer and begins to recover data from the primary DR device. When the delay timer expires, the secondary DR device brings up all network interfaces.

Figure 4 IPL failure handling mechanism

Device failure handling mechanism

As shown in Figure 5, when the primary DR device fails, the secondary DR device takes over the primary role to forward all traffic for the DR system. When the faulty device recovers, it becomes the secondary DR device.

When the secondary DR device fails, the primary DR device forwards all traffic for the DR system.

Figure 5 Device failure handling mechanism

Protocols and standards

IEEE P802.1AX-REV™/D4.4c, Draft Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks

Restrictions and guidelines: DRNI configuration

DRNI

DRNI is an H3C proprietary protocol. You cannot use DR interfaces for communicating with third-party devices.

For the DR member devices to be identified as one DR system, you must configure the same DR system MAC address and DR system priority on them. You must assign different DR system numbers to the DR member devices.

Make sure each DR system uses a unique DR system MAC address.

As a best practice to reduce the impact of interface flapping on upper-layer services, use the link-delay command to configure the same link delay settings on the IPPs.

To prevent data synchronization failure, you must set the same maximum jumbo frame length on the IPPs of the DR member devices.

For the DR system to correctly forward traffic for single-homed devices, set the link type to trunk for the IPPs and the interfaces attached to the single-homed devices. If you fail to do so, the ND protocol packets sent to or from the single-homed devices cannot be forwarded over the IPL.

Compatibility with other features

IRF

DRNI cannot work correctly on an IRF fabric. Before you configure DRNI, configure the candidate DR member devices to operate in standalone mode. For more information about IRF, see Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide.

MAC address table

If the DR system has a large number of MAC address entries, set the MAC aging timer to a higher value than 20 minutes as a best practice. To set the MAC aging timer, use the mac-address timer command.

Do not change the state of MAC address learning on the IPP. Retain the default MAC address learning state.

For more information about the MAC address table, see "Configuring the MAC address table."

Ethernet link aggregation

Do not configure automatic link aggregation on a DR system.

The aggregate interfaces in an S-MLAG group cannot be used as DR interfaces or IPPs.

When you configure a DR interface, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· As a best practice, use the undo lacp period command to enable the long LACP timeout timer (90 seconds) on DR interfaces.

· The link-aggregation selected-port maximum and link-aggregation selected-port minimum commands do not take effect on a DR interface.

· If you execute the display link-aggregation verbose command for a DR interface, the displayed system ID contains the DR system MAC address and the DR system priority.

· If the reference port is a member port of a DR interface, the display link-aggregation verbose command displays the reference port on both DR member devices.

For more information about Ethernet link aggregation, see "Configuring Ethernet link aggregation."

Port isolation

Do not assign DR interfaces or IPPs to a port isolation group. For more information about port isolation, see "Configuring port isolation."

Spanning tree

When the spanning tree protocol is enabled for a DR system, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Make sure the DR member devices have the same spanning tree configuration. Violation of this rule might cause network flapping. The configuration includes:

¡ Global spanning tree configuration.

¡ Spanning tree configuration on the IPP.

¡ Spanning tree configuration on DR interfaces.

· IPPs of the DR system do not participate in spanning tree calculation.

· The DR member devices still use the DR system MAC address after the DR system splits, which will cause spanning tree calculation issues. To avoid the issues, enable DRNI standalone mode on the DR member devices before the DR system splits.

For more information about spanning tree, see "Configuring spanning tree."

CFD

Do not use the MAC address of a remote MEP for CFD tests on IPPs. These tests cannot work on IPPs. For more information about CFD, see High Availability Configuration Guide.

VRRP

The S12500X-AF H-series modules support a maximum of 15 VRRP groups with unique IDs.

The S12500X-AF F-series modules, S12500-X switch series, and S9800 switch series support a maximum of 7 VRRP groups with unique IDs.

If you use DRNI and VRRP together, make sure the keepalive hold timer is shorter than the interval at which the VRRP master sends VRRP advertisements. Violation of this restriction might cause a VRRP master/backup switchover to occur before IPL failure is confirmed. To set the interval at which the VRRP master sends VRRP advertisements, use the vrrp vrid timer advertise or vrrp ipv6 vrid timer advertise command. For more information about the commands, see High Availability Command Reference.

Mirroring

For a mirroring group, do not assign the source port to an aggregation group other than the one that accommodates the destination port, egress port, or reflector port. If the source port is in a different aggregation group than the other ports, mirrored LACPDUs will be transmitted between the aggregation groups and cause aggregate interface flapping.

VXLAN and EVPN

For information about VXLAN and EVPN restrictions, see VXLAN Configuration Guide and EVPN VXLAN configuration in EVPN Configuration Guide.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Set the DR role priority of the device.

drni role priority priority-value

By default, the DR role priority of the device is 32768.

Configuring DR keepalive settings

Restrictions and guidelines for configuring DR keepalive settings

As a best practice, estalibsh a direct physical link between the DR member devices as the keepalive link and use that link only for keepalive detection purposes. Make sure the link has both Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity.

Excluding an interface from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD (Release 2710 and earlier)

About DRNI MAD

When DRNI MAD detects a multi-active collision, DRNI sets all network interfaces on the secondary DR device to MAD DOWN state, except for the following interfaces:

· IPP.

· Management Ethernet interface.

· Interfaces excluded from the MAD shutdown action.

For correct keepalive detection, you must exclude the interfaces used for keepalive detection from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD.

Restrictions and guidelines

To view interfaces excluded from the MAD shutdown action, see the Excluded ports (user-configured) field in the output from the display mad verbose command. For more information about this command, see IRF commands in Virtual Technologies Command Reference.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Exclude an interface from the MAD shutdown action by DRNI.

mad exclude interface interface-type interface-number

By default, DRNI MAD shuts down all network interfaces when detecting a multi-active collision, except for the IPP, IRF physical interfaces, and the management Ethernet interface.

Excluding an interface from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD (Release 2712 and later)

About DRNI MAD

When DRNI MAD detects a multi-active collision, DRNI sets all network interfaces on the secondary DR device to DRNI MAD DOWN state, except for the interfaces excluded from the MAD shutdown action by DRNI or IRF.

For correct keepalive detection, you must exclude the interfaces used for keepalive detection from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD.

Restrictions and guidelines

To view interfaces manually or automatically excluded from the MAD shutdown action, use the display drni mad verbose command.

If an interface has been placed in DRNI MAD DOWN state, executing the drni mad exclude interface command cannot bring it up.

Procedure

system-view

2. Exclude an interface from the MAD shutdown action by DRNI.

drni mad exclude interface interface-type interface-number

By default, no interfaces are manually excluded from the DRNI shutdown action.

Configuring DR keepalive packet parameters

About DR keepalive packet parameters

Perform this task to specify the destination IP address, source IP address, VPN instance, and destination UDP port of DR keepalive packets.

The device accepts only keepalive packets that are sourced from the specified destination IP address. The keepalive link goes down if the device receives keepalive packets sourced from any other IP address.

Restrictions and guidelines

Make sure the DR member devices in a DR system use the same keepalive destination UDP port.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Configure DR keepalive packet parameters.

drni keepalive { ip | ipv6 } destination { ipv4-address | ipv6-address } [ source { ipv4-address | ipv6-address } | udp-port udp-number | vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] *

By default, the destination and source IP addresses and VPN instance are not specified for DR keepalive packets, and the keepalive destination UDP port is 6400.

Setting the DR keepalive interval and timeout timer

About the DR keepalive interval and timeout timer

The device sends keepalive packets at the specified interval to its DR peer. If the device has not received a keepalive packet from the DR peer before the keepalive timeout timer expires, the device determines that the keepalive link is down.

Restrictions and guidelines

The DR keepalive timeout timer must be two times the DR keepalive interval at minimum.

Configure the same DR keepalive interval on the DR member devices in the DR system.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Set the DR keepalive interval and timeout timer.

drni keepalive interval interval [ timeout timeout ]

By default, the DR keepalive interval is 1000 milliseconds, and the DR keepalive timeout timer is 5 seconds.

Configuring a DR interface

Restrictions and guidelines

The device can have multiple DR interfaces. However, you can assign a Layer 2 aggregate interface to only one DR group.

A Layer 2 aggregate interface cannot operate as both IPP and DR interface.

To improve forwarding efficiency, exclude the DR interface on the secondary DR device from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD. This action enables the DR interface to forward traffic immediately after a multi-active collision is removed without having to wait for the secondary DR device to complete entry restoration.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Enter Layer 2 aggregate interface view.

interface bridge-aggregation interface-number

3. Assign the aggregate interface to a DR group.

4. (Optional.) Exclude the DR interface from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD.

mad exclude interface interface-type interface-number

By default, a DR interface is shut down when a multi-active collision is detected.

This command is available in Release 2710 and earlier.

Do not exclude the member ports of a DR interface from the shutdown action by DRNI MAD.

Specifying a Layer 2 aggregate interface or VXLAN tunnel interface as the IPP

Restrictions and guidelines

This feature is available on VXLAN tunnel interfaces in Release 2712 and later.

A DR member device can have only one IPP. A Layer 2 aggregate interface or VXLAN tunnel interface cannot operate as both IPP and DR interface.

Do not associate a VXLAN tunnel interface with a VXLAN if you use it as the IPP. You can use a VXLAN tunnel interface as an IPP only in an EVPN network. For more information about EVPN, see EVPN Configuration Guide.

To prevent data synchronization failure, you must set the same maximum jumbo frame length on the IPPs of the DR member devices. For more information about jumbo frames, see "Configuring Ethernet link aggregation."

Do not use the MAC address of a remote MEP for CFD tests on IPPs. These tests cannot work on IPPs. For more information about CFD, see High Availability Configuration Guide.

Disabling configuration consistency check

About disabling configuration consistency check

To ensure that the DR system can operate correctly, DRNI by default performs configuration consistency check when the DR system is set up. To prevent interface flapping, configuration consistency check is performed when half the data restoration timer elapses.

Restrictions and guidelines

Make sure the DR member devices use the same setting for configuration consistency check.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Disable configuration consistency check.

drni consistency-check disable

By default, configuration consistency check is enabled.

Enabling the short DRCP timeout timer on the IPP or a DR interface

About the DRCP timeout timer

By default, the IPP or a DR interface uses the 90-second long DRCP timeout timer. To detect peer interface down events more quickly, enable the 3-second short DRCP timeout timer on the interface.

Restrictions and guidelines

This feature is available on VXLAN tunnel interfaces in Release 2712 and later.

To avoid traffic interruption during an ISSU or DRNI process restart, disable the short DRCP timeout timer before you perform an ISSU or restart the DRNI process. For more information about ISSU, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

2. Enter interface view.

¡ Enter Layer 2 aggregate interface view.

interface bridge-aggregation interface-number

¡ Enter VXLAN tunnel interface view.

3. Enable the short DRCP timeout timer.

drni drcp period short

By default, an interface uses the long DRCP timeout timer (90 seconds).

Setting the keepalive hold timer for identifying the cause of IPL down events

About the keepalive hold timer

The keepalive hold timer starts when the IPL goes down. The keepalive hold timer specifies the amount of time that the device uses to identify the cause of an IPL down event.

· If the device receives keepalive packets from the DR peer before the timer expires, the IPL is down because the IPL fails.

· If the device does not receive keepalive packets from the DR peer before the timer expires, the IPL is down because the peer DR device fails.

Restrictions and guidelines

For the DR member device to correctly determine the cause of an IPL down event, make sure the keepalive hold timer is longer than the keepalive interval and is shorter than the keepalive timeout timer.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Set the keepalive hold timer.

drni keepalive hold-time value

By default, the keepalive hold timer is 3 seconds.

Configuring DR system auto-recovery

About DR system auto-recovery

If only one DR member device recovers after the entire DR system reboots, auto-recovery enables that member device to take over the primary role when the reload delay timer expires. Then, the member device can forward traffic through its DR interfaces.

If auto-recovery is disabled, that DR member device will be stuck in the None role with all its DR interfaces being down after it recovers.

If both DR member devices recover after the entire DR system reboots, active-active situation might occur if both IPL and keepalive links were down when the reload delay timer expires. If this rare situation occurs, examine the IPL and keepalive links and restore them.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Configure DR system auto-recovery.

drni auto-recovery reload-delay delay-value

By default, DR system auto-recovery is not configured. The reload delay timer is not set.

Setting the data restoration interval

About the data restoration interval

The data restoration interval specifies the maximum amount of time for the secondary DR device to synchronize data with the primary DR device during DR system setup. Within the data restoration interval, the secondary DR device sets all network interfaces to DRNI MAD DOWN state, except for the interfaces excluded from the MAD shutdown action by DRNI or IRF.

When the data restoration interval expires, the secondary DR device brings up all network interfaces.

Restrictions and guidelines

Increase the data restoration interval as needed in the following situations:

· Avoid packet loss and forwarding failure that might occur when the amount of data is large or when you perform an ISSU between the DR member devices.

· Avoid DR interface flapping that might occur if type 1 configuration consistency check fails after the DR interfaces come up upon expiration of the data restoration interval.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Set the data restoration interval.

drni restore-delay value

By default, the data restoration interval is 30 seconds.

Example: Configuring Layer 3 gateways on a DR system

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 7:

· Configure Device A and Device B as a DR system to provide both link-level and node-level redundancy.

· Use FortyGigE 1/0/5 on Device A and Device B to establish the DR keepalive link.

· Configure Device A and Device B to provide VRRP gateway services for VLAN 100 and VLAN 101 on VLAN-interface 100 at 10.1.1.100/24 and VLAN-interface 101 at 20.1.1.100/24, respectively. Make sure Device A has higher priority than Device B in the VRRP groups to be elected as master.
