  • 1.  VRRP CONFIGURATION ON ARUBA CX SWITCH

    Posted Dec 29, 2022 09:44 PM
    Hi team,
    We have two 6400 series switches. We want to configure vrrp between vlan for common gateway for users.
    Example
    On switch 1 :
    Sw1(config)# interface vlan 10
    Ip address 192.168.1.2/24
    Vrrp 1 address 192.168.1.1 primary
    Vrrp priority 150

    And on switch 2:
    Sw2( config)# interface vlan 10
    Ip address 192.168.1.3/24
    Vrrp 1 address 192.168.1.1 secondry or primary?

    I am confused about this primary and secondary.
    What does it mean. Should I configure primary on both the switches for vrrp ip or primary on master switch only.

    VRRP determines the role (primary or secondary) of each device in a VRRP group by priority.
    A device with a higher priority is more likely to become the primary. A greater number represents a higher priority.
    Default Priority is 100

    Sample Config: 
    SW1:
    vlan 128
    tagged 3-4
    ip address x.x.x.2 255.255.255.0
    vrrp vrid 10
    virtual-ip-address x.x.x.1
    priority 190
    enable
    exit
    exit

    SW2:
    vlan 128
    tagged 3-4
    ip address x.x.x.3 255.255.255.0
    vrrp vrid 10
    virtual-ip-address x.x.x.1
    enable
    exit
    exit

    Since you are having 6400, you can use VSX for High availability.
