  • 1.  SRX VRRP Configuration Problem

    Posted 08-17-2018 00:28

    Hi all!

     I have a problem when i tried to configure VRRP on SRX with simple topo: SRX1 --- Switch --- SRX2

    - SRX1 conf:

    interfaces ge-0/0/1
    unit 0 {
        family inet {
            address 192.168.1.253/24 {
                vrrp-group 1 {
                    virtual-address 192.168.1.1;
                    priority 254;
                    preempt;

    -SRX2:

     interfaces ge-0/0/1
      unit 0 {
        family inet {
            address 192.168.1.254/24 {
                vrrp-group 1 {
                    virtual-address 192.168.1.1;
                    priority 200;

    When I show vrrp status: 2 SRX become master, Ping between 2 SRX is ok:

     

    root@srx-345-01> show vrrp
    Interface     State       Group   VR state VR Mode   Timer    Type   Address
    ge-0/0/1.0    up              1   master   Active      A  0.494 lcl    192.168.1.253
                                                                    vip    192.168.1.1

     

    root@srx-345-02> show vrrp summary
    Interface     State       Group   VR state       VR Mode    Type   Address
    ge-0/0/1.0    up              1   master          Active    lcl    192.168.1.254
                                                                vip    192.168.1.1

     

    Somebody help me, please?

    Hi,

     

    Did you allow 'vrrp' protocol in host-inbound traffic on both SRX?

     set security zones security-zone <zone-name>  host-inbound-traffic protocols vrrp

    You are probably missing vrrp under 'host-inbound-services'

     

    set security zones security-zone <zone> host-inbound-traffic protocols vrrp

    ..or under the specific interface in the zone

     

    set security zones security-zone <zone> interface ge-0/0/1.0 host-inbound-traffic protocols vrrp

    you are missing the 'accept-data' in your vrrp-configuration:

     

    user@fw# show interfaces ge-0/0/1
    unit 0 {
        family inet {
            address 192.168.1.253/24 {
                vrrp-group 1 {
                    accept-data;
                }
            }

    Hi,
    By default Virtual IP address does not respond to the ping requests. You may need to allow it by configuring below mentoned command:
    set interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet address 192.168.1.1/32 vrrp-group 1 accept-data

    Hi,

    Are you using GNS3 VPC host as a client? If yes, try to use another client like router

    Monitor the traffic srx interface while pinging from PC and see whether SRX is resonding to ARP and ping requests

    monitor traffic interface ge-0/0/1.0 no-resolve

    Hi Nellikka!

     

     I used another router and it's work.

    Thanks for your help!
