Troubleshooting VRRP The screen frequently displays error prompts. Analysis This error is probably caused by: • Inconsistent configuration of the devices in the VRRP group. • A device is attempting to send illegitimate VRRP packets. Solution • In the first case, modify the configuration. • In the latter case, resort to non-technical measures. Multiple masters are present in the same VRRP group. Analysis • Multiple masters coexist for a short period: This is normal and requires no manual intervention. • Multiple masters coexist for a long period: This is because devices in the VRRP group cannot receive VRRP packets, or the received VRRP packets are illegal. Solution Ping between these masters, and do the following: • If the ping fails, check network connectivity. • If the ping succeeds, check that their configurations are consistent in terms of number of virtual IP addresses, virtual IP addresses, advertisement interval, and authentication. Frequent VRRP state transition. Analysis The VRRP advertisement interval is set too short. Solution Increase the interval to sent VRRP advertisement or introduce a preemption delay. 174

Troubleshooting VRRP
The screen frequently displays error prompts.
Analysis
This error is probably caused by:
Inconsistent configuration of the devices in the VRRP group.
A device is attempting to send illegitimate VRRP packets.
Solution
In the first case, modify the configuration.
In the latter case, resort to non-technical measures.
Multiple masters are present in the same VRRP group.
Analysis
Multiple masters coexist for a short period: This is normal and requires no manual intervention.
Multiple masters coexist for a long period: This is because devices in the VRRP group cannot receive
VRRP packets, or the received VRRP packets are illegal.
Solution
Ping between these masters, and do the following:
If the ping fails, check network connectivity.
If the ping succeeds, check that their configurations are consistent in terms of number of virtual IP
addresses, virtual IP addresses, advertisement interval, and authentication.
Frequent VRRP state transition.
Analysis
The VRRP advertisement interval is set too short.
Solution
Increase the interval to sent VRRP advertisement or introduce a preemption delay.
