I have two 877 routers and I am trying to create a failover and load balancing scenario. They are connected through a HP procurve 1800/24 switch. When I am getting a lot of errors on the standby routers to do with not being able to find the virtual interface with the IP of the active router.
Any help would be gratefully recieved.
Please find example of config bellow
interface Vlan1
ip address 1.0.0.4 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly
glbp 1 ip 1.0.0.1
glbp 1 ip 1.0.0.2 secondary
glbp 1 timers 5 18
glbp 1 timers redirect 600 7200
glbp 1 priority 250
glbp 1 preempt delay minimum 60
glbp 1 weighting 250
glbp 1 load-balancing weighted
glbp 1 authentication text some words
glbp 1 name example
glbp 1 weighting track 1 decrement 249
and the show glbp on the bad router

Sorry I feel I should clarify the problem appears to be that when traffic is sent to the main router it is fine but then no traffic can go to the interface and you cannot ping the interface. I think this is when it is forwarding to the secondary.
