after configuring multiple group HSRP for two routers(router 1 active for half of the traffic and router 2 active for the remaining half)I found that at certain time all traffic directed to router 1 and then the situation reversed the second router handle all the traffic and router 1 does not handle any traffic???!!!!!
is this and arp cache problem???
how to solve this problem????

Hi
Could you post your config. Assuming that you have a stable environment and the routers are not flipping between each other half you clients should have one default-gateway set (one of the HSRP VIP's) and the other half of your clients should be using the other default-gateway (the other HSRP VIP).

Hi Mohammad ,
I think you are doing load balacing qith HSRP.
Please check the below link..Can you paste the config of both the routers.

There are a number of possible reasons, but two "headline" possibilities.
Either you have some instability that was causing the active router for each HSRP group to move around.
Or, you have some issue where all the users were using the same HSRP addres at that time.
How do you allocate gateway addresses to users? Are they manually configured or do you use DHCP? If DHCP have you got an advanced solution, or are you just using two DHCP servers and let them race?

I have a firewall with two default routes to the two Virtual IP of HSRP..
12-11-2007 02:08 AM
Is it the firewall that is not loadbalancing and does the firewall use a Virtual IP address itself ?
So what default-gateway have you setup on the firewall and what are the static routes.
The thing is the firewall can only use one gateway at a time. HSRP load-balancing is for spreading the load between multiple clients.

it is a juniper firewall??what do you think??
12-11-2007 02:32 AM
Hi
If it is a single device then it will not load balance as such unless it is doing per-packet loadbalancing.
Yes it may well use both routers but it can only use one router at a time.

cisco routers accept two default routes and load balance between them
12-11-2007 02:40 AM
Well yes, but from your previous posts my understanding was that the default static routes are on the Juniper not the routers ?

ok thanks Jon,,I will try to ask Juniper about that
12-11-2007 04:18 AM
Ah! You need to investigate the firewall - what is it?
Different systems use multiple routes differently.
Some will load balance, some will use just one.
You need to understand how the FW handles multiple routes.

This is right juniper firewall use only one default route..Any idea??
12-26-2007 11:01 PM
so what is the solutions a vailable in like situation, again the two cisco routers are connected to the same firewall and the firewall does not accept more than one default route so MHSRP didnt work with me??
