VRRP Configuration in Olive

Hi All,

I am facing problem in configuration of VRRP in Olive. After configuring VRRP in olive and check by using run show vrrp summary, i got the message as VRRP is not running. Can anyone solve this problem?

What I have heard is, VRRP doesn't always work on a olive.. Some people have got it to work but still faced issues with being able to ping the Virtual IP. What I know is Qemu is something that you get the VRRP working with the multicast fix, VMware doesn't work.

This might help
Re: [Qemu-devel] multicast and the eepro100 driver

But the bottom line is interface driver for fxp interfaces doesn't accept mcast
packets by default on Qemu.

Post your configurations... Maybe something wrong there?

Please find the configuration of VRRP according to book's chapter 2 with the error.

root@R-01# show interfaces em3
vlan-tagging;
unit 520 {
vlan-id 520;
family inet {
address 10.0.5.1/24 {
vrrp-group 1 {
virtual-address 10.0.5.253;
accept-data;
}
}
}
}
unit 530 {
vlan-id 530;
family inet {
address 10.0.6.1/24 {
vrrp-group 2 {
virtual-address 10.0.6.253;
accept-data;
}
}
}
}

[edit]

root@R-01# run show vrrp summary
VRRP is not running

em3 {
vlan-tagging;
unit 520 {
vlan-id 520;
family inet {
address 10.0.5.2/24 {
vrrp-group 1 {
virtual-address 10.0.5.253;
priority 80;
accept-data;
}
}
}
}
unit 530 {
vlan-id 530;
family inet {
address 10.0.6.2/24 {
vrrp-group 2 {
virtual-address 10.0.6.253;
accept-data;
}
}
}
}
}

Maybe it is just your Olive here... Configuration looks okay... Sorry man.. It might be just your OLIVE...Aldur might know or probably Toufiq... I believe toufiq is also from Pakistan.

Thanks for your reply. At-least my configurations have been verified. Toufiq is preparing for JNCIP exam with me. We both have same issue. We are now trying for remote lab.

When are you guys taking the exam... My best wishes to both of you...

on 30th December 2009 inshallah. thanks for your wishes

I was thinking that this was an olive issue as well

More specifically this seems to be an VM olive issue as opposed to a hardware olive issue. I never had any problems getting vrrp to run on my hardware olives back in the day that I was prepping for the IP.

Yep, its a vmware olive issue.

I have many hardware olives, running various codes and haven't not had this problem.

I am now using Qemu for running VRRP and it is running on it but can anyone help me out to guide that how to pause the routers in Qemu as we can do in VMware.

In Qemu i am separately running command line for each router and i have to quit which makes the routers to shut down completely, I want to pause it so that i can use again from where i have left without loading the routers again.

Note: I can give access of my laptop for its guidance.

Dear Hoogen82,

Could you explain to me how you get those ge-x/y/z interfaces in VMware/Olive?

That will resolve the whole problem

Well in Olive you can have fxp ports only... It's a virtual router with virtual interfaces...

Or em interfaces for VMware olives

But to Hoogen's point, you won't be able to get any w-x/y/z interfaces with any type of olives.

Err.. yeah.. Not sure what I was thinking there... Aldur.. Thank You for correcting that...

hehe, I just couldn't resist

But still what you said holds true for em or fxp interfaces with olives.
