I know it's pretty basic, but can we see sanitized versions of the relevant portions of your configs? What IOS are you running on your routers? Are there other devices hanging off of the switch that are in the same subnet as the routers? If so, what are they?
John >>> "John Starta" 2/25/03 12:11:53 PM >>> I'm currently experiencing an oddity with multicast traffic like HSRP that I'm looking for some ideas on. For simplicity the network design consists of 2 Cisco 3640 routers running HSRP between them connected to a single Extreme [Black Diamond] switch. Basically... extreme switch | | | | rtr1 rtr2 Normally everything works just fine, but periodically -- in time, not quantity -- HSRP indicates via the %HSRP-4-DUPADDR message that I have a duplicate [IP] address. (The quantity of the messages indicating the duplicate IP address ranges from half dozen to nearly a hundred. The time between messages closely matches the HSRP HELLO interval.) When I receive these messages, on the active HSRP router for instance, they indicate the duplicate address as being the physical interface IP address of the active HSRP router with the source MAC address as the virtual MAC [address] of the active HSRP router. Receipt of these %HSRP-4-DUPADDR messages indicating the duplicate as itself suggests an issue with multicast -- a loop of sorts whereby the switch copies the multicast announcement [back] to the same switch port it originated. Keep in mind that there are no interface or HSRP state changes so the messages probably aren't coming from the standby HSRP router. (Especially since the indicated duplicate IP address is that of the physical interface on the active HSRP router, not the virtual IP.) I did some poking around on Extreme's web site and they indicate an issue with HSRP in an earlier version of code, but that is/was fixed in the version being used. Have anybody run into this before? Ideas regarding cause? I don't have access to the switch since it belongs to the customer. ., Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=63788&t=63768 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
