[alcatel-nsp] FDB VPLS on VRRP

[Garcia Del Rio, Diego (Diego)]

Hi Lukman,

Actually, it seems you have two different vlans on the same vrrp/vpls. 
 I think what's happening is that your vrrp messages are sent to both vlans and received by both vlans on the other node. Basically vrrp messages are multicast and thus are flooded to all saps and sdps in the same vpls. Since you essentially have 2 paths between gw1 and gw2 (the two vlans you mention) you will se gw2's MAC on both vlans and we keep re-learning those MACs depending on which vlan we see it first. 

I think its normal (given your topology)

Do you have any acl/split horizon groups to prevent flooding ?

Hi Diego, 

Below for fdb on gw1 which is IP interface of gw2 coming to fdb gw1 and
shown sometime as vlan 3349 or 3353

Hi Lukman,
 
Sorry for the late reply.
 
If you could add some show commands, it might help. But I think what you
see is normal, the VRRP MAC should only appear when the system (gw2)
becomes the owner, that is, when GW1 goes down.
 
Best regards

Dears, 
 

This first my posting here

I have question related with VRRP toward switch

Ex: 

IP VRRP - 10.249.14.225

IP Int Gw1 - 10.249.14.226

IP Int Gw2 - 10.249.14.227

 

connection to switch is via VPLS then routed to VPRN using R-VPLS

 

When I saw vpls fdb on gw2 I got mac of IP Int Gw1 10.249.14.226 and only
has 1 cpm mac address which is IP Int Gw2 also mac of IP VRRP as VLAN
Spoke from Gw1

Usually I saw on gw2 fdb is only contain 2 cpm which is mac of IP Int Gw2
and IP VRRP

 

What I facing here is normal ?
