Virtual Router Redundancy - VRR

VRR enables hosts to communicate with any redundant switch without reconfiguration by running dynamic router protocols or router redundancy protocols. Redundant switches respond to ARP requests from hosts. The switches respond in an identical manner, but if one fails, the other redundant switches continue to respond. You use VRR with MLAG.

Use VRR when you connect multiple devices to a single logical connection, such as an MLAG bond. A device that connects to an MLAG bond believes there is a single device on the other end of the bond and only forwards one copy of the transit frames. If the destination of this frame is the virtual MAC address and you are running VRRP, the frame can go to the link connected to the VRRP standby device, which does not forward the frame to the right destination. With the virtual MAC active on both MLAG devices, either MLAG device handles the frame it receives.

You cannot configure both VRR and VRRP on the same switch.

The diagram below illustrates a basic VRR-enabled network configuration.

The network includes three servers and two Cumulus Linux switches. The switches use MLAG.

  • As the bridges in each of the redundant switches connect, they each receive and reply to ARP requests for the virtual router IP address.
  • Each ARP request by a server receives replies from each switch; these replies are identical, and the server receiving the replies either ignores replies after the first, or accepts them and overwrites the previous identical reply.
  • VRR uses the default fabric-wide MAC address 00:00:5E:00:01:01. If necessary, you can change the VRR MAC address.

Configure the Switches

The switches implement the layer 2 network interconnecting the servers and the redundant switches. To configure the switches, add a bridge with the following interfaces to each switch:

  • One bond interface or switch port interface to each server. For networks using MLAG, use bond interfaces. Otherwise, use switch port interfaces.
  • One or more interfaces to each peer switch. To accommodate higher bandwidth between the switches and to offer link redundancy, multiple inter-peer links are typically bonded interfaces. The VLAN interface must have a unique IP address for both the physical and virtual interface; the switch uses the unique address when it initiates an ARP request.

Cumulus Linux only supports VRR on an SVI. You cannot configure VRR on a physical interface or virtual subinterface.

The example commands below create a VLAN-aware bridge interface for a VRR-enabled network. The example assumes you have already configured a VLAN-aware bridge with VLAN 10 and that VLAN 10 has an IP address and uses the default fabric-wide VRR MAC address 00:00:5e:00:01:01.

cumulus@switch:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr address 10.1.10.1/24
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr state up
cumulus@switch:~$ nv config apply

Use the same commands for IPv6 addresses; for example:

cumulus@switch:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr address 2001:db8::1/32
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr state up

Edit the /etc/network/interfaces file, then run the ifreload -a command.

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
...
auto vlan10
iface vlan10
    address 10.1.10.2/24
    address-virtual 00:00:5e:00:01:01 10.1.10.1/24
    vlan-raw-device br_default
    vlan-id 10
...
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo ifreload -a

Change the VRR MAC Address

Cumulus Linux sets a fabric-wide MAC address to ensure consistency across VRR switches, which is especially useful in an EVPN multi-fabric environment. If you prefer, you can change the VRR MAC address globally with one NVUE command. You can also override the global setting for a specific VLAN.

To set the VRR MAC address globally with one NVUE command, either:

  • Set the fabric-wide VRR MAC address to a value in the reserved range between 00:00:5E:00:01:00 and 00:00:5E:00:01:FF. Be sure to use an address in this reserved range to prevent MAC address conflicts with other interfaces in the same bridged network.
  • Set a fabric ID, from which Cumulus Linux derives the MAC address. You can specify a number between 1 and 255. Cumulus Linux adds the number to the MAC address 00:00:5E:00:01:00 in hex. For example, if you specify 255, the VRR MAC address is 00:00:5E:00:01:FF.

The default VRR MAC address is 00:00:5E:00:01:01, which the switch derives from a fabric ID setting of 1.

To change a VRR MAC address globally on the switch, run the nv set system global fabric-mac <mac-address> command:

cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv set system global fabric-mac 00:00:5E:00:01:FF
cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

To set a fabric ID, run the nv set system global fabric-id <number> command:

cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv set system global fabric-id 255
cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

To override the global setting for a specific VLAN, run the nv set interface <vlan> ip vrr mac-address <mac-address> command:

cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr mac-address 00:00:5E:00:01:00
cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

To change the VRR MAC address manually, edit the /etc/network/interfaces file and update the MAC address in the address-virtual line for each VLAN. Cumulus Linux does not provide a fabric ID option in the /etc/network/interfaces file.

The following example shows vlan10, vlan20, and vlan30:

cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
...
auto vlan10
iface vlan10
    address 10.1.10.5/24
    address-virtual 00:00:5E:00:01:FF 10.1.10.1/24
    hwaddress 44:38:39:22:01:c1
    vrf RED
    vlan-raw-device br_default
    vlan-id 10

auto vlan20
iface vlan20
    address 10.1.20.5/24
    address-virtual 00:00:5E:00:01:FF 10.1.20.1/24
    hwaddress 44:38:39:22:01:c1
    vrf RED
    vlan-raw-device br_default
    vlan-id 20

auto vlan30
iface vlan30
    address 10.1.30.5/24
    address-virtual 00:00:5E:00:01:FF 10.1.30.1/24
    hwaddress 44:38:39:22:01:c1
    vrf BLUE
    vlan-raw-device br_default
    vlan-id 30
...

Make sure to set the same VRR MAC address on both MLAG peers.

EVPN Routing with VRR

In an EVPN routing environment, if you want to configure multiple subnets as VRR addresses on a VLAN, you must configure them with the same VRR MAC address.

The following example commands configure both 10.1.10.1/24 and 10.1.11.1/24 on VLAN 10 using the default fabric-wide VRR MAC address 00:00:5e:00:01:01.

cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr address 10.1.10.1/24
cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv set interface vlan10 ip vrr address 10.1.11.1/24
cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

Edit the /etc/network/interfaces file; for example:

cumulus@switch:mgmt:~$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
auto vlan10
iface vlan10
    address 10.1.10.2/24
    address 10.1.11.2/24
    address-virtual 00:00:5e:00:01:01 10.1.10.1/24 10.1.11.1/24
    hwaddress 44:38:39:22:01:7a
    vlan-raw-device br_default
    vlan-id 10
...

To reduce BGP EVPN processing during convergence, NVIDIA recommends that you use the same fabric-wide MAC address across all VLANs and VRR subnets.

Configure the Servers

Each server must have two network interfaces. The switches configure the interfaces as bonds running LACP; the servers must also configure the two interfaces using teaming, port aggregation, port group, or EtherChannel running LACP. Configure the servers either statically or with DHCP, with a gateway address that is the IP address of the virtual router; this default gateway address never changes.

Configure the links between the servers and the switches in active-active mode for FHRP.

Troubleshooting

To verify the configuration on the switch, run the nv show interface command:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv show interface
