Hi,
Setup
I have a VRRP cluster with 2 nodes.
Both nodes have 3 vrrp groups.
The 3 vrrp groups are in one vrrp sync group.
Symptoms:
1. Both nodes become and stay master.
2. Tcpdump reveals that only the backup node - the one with the lower priority (50 versus 150) - is sending HELO messages:
***
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth2.10, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes
23:35:10.317680 IP 10.114.152.251 > 224.0.0.18: VRRPv2, Advertisement, vrid 10, prio 50, authtype none, intvl 1s, length 20
...
***
3. The actual master node - prio 150 - is not sending any multicast vrrp message!
I have the interfaces/ethernet/vrrp configuration attached.
I have another cluster with the same config (except for the IP/subnets) which is working as expected.
Any idea why the configuration might result the problem symptoms described above?
