Re: GLBP config

Ahmede · ‎01-13-2008

We have once L2 switch dually homed to two 2800 routers, we are running HSRP on both routers. To load balance traffic between the two routers we tried to move to GLBP, but once we remove HSRP and configure GLBP we see no traffic at all passing to the routers. Here's the GLBP config we added

Router 1 (Active router)

--------------------------

track 10 interface serial 0/0/0 line-protocol

track 20 interface serial 0/1/1 line-protocol

int g0/0

glbp 2 ip 10.1.70.6

glbp 2 load-balancing weighted

glbp 2 preempt

glbp 2 weighting 110 lower 95 upper 105

glbp 2 weighting track 10

glbp 2 weighting track 20

glbp 2 priority 105

Router 2

----------

track 10 interface serial 0/0 line-protocol

track 20 interface serial 0/1 line-protocol

int e0/0

glbp 2 ip 10.1.70.6

glbp 2 load-balancing weighted

glbp 2 weighting 110 lower 95 upper 105

glbp 2 weighting track 10

glbp 2 weighting track 20

GLBP uses a different virtual MAC then HSRP. Likely clients where still trying to get to the gateway IP address using the prior HSRP MAC. You'll need to flush the client ARP caches after making the switch.

did u ever get this problem sorted??

if yes what was the issue???

can u pls post it so that it can help us
