  • 1.  mc-lag active standby problem

    Posted 06-04-2019 23:41

    R1---R2

    R1---R3

     

    In my lab 

    R3 is standby ae interface is down, only come up if R2 ae interface down,  this up switch around 10 seconds. does it correct? I do not find any configuration example about mc-lag active-standby mode. here is my configuration below:

    R1

     

    set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp active
    set interfaces ae0 aggregated-ether-options lacp periodic fast
    set interfaces ae0 unit 0 family inet address 10.0.123.1/24

     

    R2

    R2# run show interfaces terse | match ae

    ae0 up down

    Good Day,

     

    Seems ICCP-connection is not established.

    Peers do not know the status of each other.

    ---

    Peer Status : Unknown
    Peer State : Unknown

    ---

    Could you please check the reachability and provide "show iccp detail" output?

    There is no multi-chassis statement in provided configs, maybe this is an issue:

    multi-chassis {
       multi-chassis-protection 10.43.100.1 {
          interface ae0;
       }
    }

    https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/reference/configuration-statement/multi-chassis-qfx-series.html

    Please check it.

    Hi xinhui,

     

    From your output:

    run show interfaces mc-ae 
    Member Link : ae0
    Current State Machine's State: mcae active state
    Local Status : active
    Local State : down
    Peer Status : Unknown <== !!
    Peer State : Unknown  <== !!
    Logical Interface : ae0.0
    Topology Type : inet
    Local State : up
    Peer State : Unknown  <== !!
    Peer Ip/MCP/State : N/A

    I see that your MC-LAG peers does not have ICCP session.

    The output should be like this:

    PE1> show interfaces mc-ae
     Member Link                  : ae1
     Current State Machine's State: mcae active state
     Local Status                 : active
     Local State                  : up
     Peer Status                  : standby <== !!
     Peer State                   : up      <== !!
         Logical Interface        : ae1.100
         Topology Type            : square
         Local State              : up
         Peer State               : up      <== !!

     

    So, please check the ICCP session: "show iccp", the output should be like this:

     

    PE1> show iccp
    
    Redundancy Group Information for peer 172.16.1.2
      TCP Connection       : Established
      Liveliness Detection : Up
      Redundancy Group ID          Status
        1                           Up
    
    Client Application: lacpd
      Redundancy Group IDs Joined: 1

    If your ICCP in Dn state, please check network reachibility.

     

    With your config it would be:

    R2> ping 10.0.23.3 source 10.0.23.2

    Thanks,

    Alex

    Hi,

     

    you can also try this and it will give you a good hint of the errors:

     

    set multi-chassis mc-lag configuration-consistency mcae-config

    and then 

    show multi-chassis mc-lag configuration-consistency mcae-config

     
    hope it helps

    I use vmx tested it. when I ping iccp peer, the iccp peer go up. I think my mc-lag active-standby. it does not work.

    Good Day,

     

    Seems you still don't have required line in configuration.

    ----

    R2# show multi-chassis |display set 
    set multi-chassis mc-lag consistency-check

     

    R3# show multi-chassis |display set 
    set multi-chassis mc-lag consistency-check

    ----

    You should have multi-chassis-protection enabled on particular interface on both R2 and R3 (on the link between R2 and R3 where ICCP should be established)

    set multi-chassis multi-chassis-protection <ip_address> interface <interface_name>

    Here is a configuration example, please check if your config is similar. You will see multi-chassis-protection command there as well.

    I tested it, it  work fine, right now. thanks so much. I am really appreciae you help. when my active ae is down, it switch to standy ae interface quickly
