Configuring Layer 3 Redundancy With VRRP and GLBP: Implementing High Availability in A Campus Environment

Uploaded by

This document discusses implementing high availability in a campus environment using VRRP and GLBP. VRRP provides router redundancy by electing a master router and backup routers to take over if the master fails. GLBP also provides redundancy and load balances traffic across routers by assigning each router a virtual MAC address and distributing the virtual IP address. Both protocols require enabling on interfaces to configure redundancy.

Configuring Layer 3 Redundancy with VRRP


and GLBP

VRRP

VRRP Operational Process

Configuring VRRP on an Interface

Enable VRRP on an interface and display the configuration.

Gateway Load Balancing Protocol


Single virtual IP address and multiple virtual MAC addresses
Traffic to single gateway distributed across routers
Automatic rerouting in the event of any failure
Full use of resources on all routers without the
administrative burden of creating multiple groups

GLBP Operations
GLBP group members elect one AVG.
AVG assigns a virtual MAC address to each member of the
group.
AVG replies to the ARP requests from clients with different
virtual MAC addresses, thus achieving load balancing.
Each router becomes an AVF for frames that are addressed
to that virtual MAC address.

GLBP Operation

GLBP Operation (Cont.)

GLBP Interface Tracking

GLBP Interface Tracking (Cont.)

Configuring GLBP on an Interface

Enable GLBP on an interface and display the configuration.

Summary
VRRP provides router redundancy in a manner similar to
HSRP.
VRRP supports a master and one or more backup routers.
VRRP and GLBP are configured per interface.
GLBP provides router redundancy and load balancing.
GLBP balances traffic by allocating a virtual MAC address to
each AVF.
