The output shows that if LB A fails, LB B becomes the master, LB C becomes the AVF among the VFs
corresponding to the virtual MAC address 000f-e2ff-0011, and packets sent from Host A to the external
network are forwarded by LB C.
Troubleshooting VRRP
Symptom 1
The screen displays error prompts frequently.
Analysis:
This error is probably caused by the following:
• Inconsistent configuration of the LB modules in the VRRP group.
• A LB module is attempting to send illegitimate VRRP packets.
Solution:
• In the first case, modify the configuration.
• In the latter case, you have to resort to non-technical measures.
Symptom 2
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.
