Quagga & VRRP compatibility on S11.1

edited Nov 13, 2014 3:04PM in Oracle Solaris Networking (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered
When trying to bring together Quagga and ORACLE Solaris VRRP implementation on ORACLE Solaris 11.1 for
building HA OSPF router,
I've observed that Quagga lacks mechanism of network interface visibility.
Due to VRRP implementation, there exist two network interfaces:
one is VRRP VIP interface, the second is supplementary for VRRP multicast traffic exchange.

Supposing one have VRRP VNIC v4vrrp140 and two IP interfaces respectively:

# ipadm show-addr
ADDROBJ TYPE STATE ADDR
lo0/v4 static ok 127.0.0.1/8
v4vrrp140/v4 static down 172.26.136.10/24
upv4vlan140link8/v4 static ok 172.26.136.8/24
lo0/v6 static ok ::1/128


Due to VRRP RFC both IP interfaces should belong to one broadcast domain (in example 172.26.136/24).

Howdy, Stranger!
