Hi,

The simple answer (without messing around with kernel code) is to defer
the new interface addition(into linux kernel)till you transition to the
master state for that Virtual IP. When backing out of the master state,
simply revoke the interface (from the kernel) which has been created.

You might also want to create a blackhole route for the interface (the
new interface) so that packets bound for the Virtual IP interface are
dropped.

Thanks
Biju Mammen

Hi,

   We are planning to run VRRP over a Logical Interface created in Linux
IP.(similar to eth0)

   How we can I prevent that Linux Interface from sending arp reply when
it
is in Backup State?

  Also,How can we to associate various virtual MacAddresses to that
Linux
Interface?

  Please share your valuable suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
Venkatesan S.

Hi Venkatesh,
When you are requesting arp for a physical interface of any vrrp enabled
interface, we cannot stop sending the arp response, but when you send an
arp
request for the virtual ip address associated to the vrrp, only the
master
sends the arp response.

Can you be more specific what you mean by "various" virtual mac address,
Since for any vrrp virtual ip address, we have unique virtual mac
address
within that network.

-William.

I understand only master  will send the ARP Response?How can I
distinguish
linux device as Master/Slave?

As in the VRRP Mib definitions, We can have multiple VRID for a single
Interface.
If I am having Multiple VRID's over a single Interface like,

  Interface
    |
    |
   VRID1<--------->VRID1
   VRID2<--------->VRID2
   VRID3<--------->VRID3

Assume,if it behaves as a master in case of all VRID's.

We have different Virtual MAC  as 00:00:5e:00:01:01
                                     00:00:5e:00:01:02
                                     00:00:5e:00:01:03 associated with
that
Interface.

Can these mac addresses associated with a Single Linux Interface?

Thanks
Venkatesan S.

You can verify who is master from the VRRP advertisement message.

Normally you have multiple VRID for single interface in a clustering
mode
for load sharing/balancing. When all routers who were master for their
VRID's fail except one router, then that router can act as Master for
all
the VRID's as you have mentioned.

Check RFC 3768 Section 4.2.

I want the Linux kernel to Respond for ARP Requests.

Kernel should send ARP Response with VRRP MAC in case of Master State.
If it is in backup state,ARP Requests should be dropped by kernel
itself.

How can I make Linux Interface to understand different VMAC and respond
with
them?

Thanks
Venkatesan S.
