[c-nsp] MAC Address 'static' and HSRP failover

Hi, 

 

Was hoping someone could help. It’s a relatively set
up but Im having a few issues. In a nut shell, we have 2 routers connecting to
two provider routers via a switch. Each router pair are running HSRP for
redundancy. Switches are configured to connect devices over a single VLAN. The
issue we’re having is when the provider router fails over to the secondary by
downing the upstream WAN interface (which its tracking). The Provider sees this
HSRP fail over but were unable to ping the gateway. The config is pretty
vanilla but the one thing that is really strange is the fact that both switches
are learning the virtual MAC and neither is purged during failover. In previous configs port-security has caused the
MAC addresses to be learnt “dynamically” and obviously the virtual MAC is only
seen from the active router. In this set up both switches are learning the virtual
Mac from both upstream routers and then ‘statically’ assigning them rather than
dynamic which I believe is causing issues. Its almost behaving as though its
configured for sticky which isn’t in the config? Has anyone seen this behaviour
before .. Im assuming its not default? Both switches are WS-C2960-24TT-L running 12.2(44)SE6. We have this
configured on 3550s with no issues. 

Thanks. Mark.
