Implementing HSRP on Cisco IOS XR Software


The Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) is an IP routing redundancy protocol designed to allow for transparent failover at the first-hop IP router. HSRP provides high network availability, because it routes IP traffic from hosts on networks without relying on the availability of any single router. HSRP is used in a group of routers for selecting an active router and a standby router. (An active router is the router of choice for routing packets; a standby router is a router that takes over the routing duties when an active router fails, or when preset conditions are met.)

Restrictions for Implementing HSRP on Cisco IOS XR Software

HSRP is supported on Ethernet interfaces and Ethernet link bundles.

Information About Implementing HSRP on Cisco IOS XR Software

To implement HSRP on Cisco IOS XR software, you need to understand the following concepts:

HSRP Overview

HSRP Groups

HSRP and ARP

Preemption

ICMP Redirect Messages

HSRP Overview

HSRP is useful for hosts that do not support a router discovery protocol (such as Internet Control Message Protocol [ICMP] Router Discovery Protocol [IRDP]) and cannot switch to a new router when their selected router reloads or loses power. Because existing TCP sessions can survive the failover, this protocol also provides a more transparent recovery for hosts that dynamically choose a next hop for routing IP traffic.

When the HSRP is configured on a network segment, it provides a virtual MAC address and an IP address that is shared among a group of routers running HSRP. The address of this HSRP group is referred to as the virtual IP address. One of these devices is selected by the protocol to be the active router. The active router receives and routes packets destined for the MAC address of the group. For n routers running HSRP, n + 1 IP and MAC addresses are assigned.

HSRP detects when the designated active router fails, at which point a selected standby router assumes control of the MAC and IP addresses of the HSRP group. A new standby router is also selected at that time.

Devices that are running HSRP send and receive multicast User Datagram Protocol (UDP) based hello packets to detect router failure and to designate active and standby routers.

HSRP Groups

An HSRP group consists of two or more routers running HSRP that are configured to provide hot standby services for one another. HSRP uses a priority scheme to determine which HSRP-configured router is to be the default active router. To configure a router as the active router, you assign it a priority that is higher than the priority of all the other HSRP-configured routers. The default priority is 100, so if you configure just one router to have a higher priority, that router will be the default active router.

HSRP works by the exchange of multicast messages that advertise priority among the HSRP group. When the active router fails to send a hello message within a configurable period of time, the standby router with the highest priority becomes the active router. The transition of packet-forwarding functions between routers is completely transparent to all hosts on the network.

Figure 3 shows routers configured as members of a single HSRP group.

Figure 3 Routers Configured as an HSRP Group

All hosts on the network are configured to use the IP address of the virtual router (in this case, 1.0.0.3) as the default gateway.

A single router interface can also be configured to belong to more than one HSRP group. Figure 4 shows routers configured as members of multiple HSRP groups.

Figure 4 Routers Configured as Members of Multiple HSRP Groups

In Figure 4, the Ethernet interface 0 of Router A belongs to group 1. Ethernet interface 0 of Router B belongs to groups 1, 2, and 3. The Ethernet interface 0 of Router C belongs to group 2, and the Ethernet interface 0 of Router D belongs to group 3. When you establish groups, you might want to align them along departmental organizations. In this case, group 1 might support the Engineering Department, group 2 might support the Manufacturing Department, and group 3 might support the Finance Department.

Router B is configured as the active router for groups 1 and 2 and as the standby router for group 3. Router D is configured as the active router for group 3. If Router D fails for any reason, Router B assumes the packet-transfer functions of Router D and maintains the ability of users in the Finance Department to access data on other subnets.

HSRP and ARP

When a router in an HSRP group goes active, it sends a number of ARP responses containing its virtual IP address and the virtual MAC address. These ARP responses help switches and learning bridges update their port-to-MAC maps. These ARP responses also provide routers configured to use the burned-in address of the interface as its virtual MAC address (instead of the preassigned MAC address or the functional address) with a means to update the ARP entries for the virtual IP address. Unlike the gratuitous ARP responses sent to identify the interface IP address when an interface comes up, the HSRP router ARP response packet carries the virtual MAC address in the packet header. The ARP data fields for IP address and media address contain the virtual IP and virtual MAC addresses.

Preemption

The HSRP preemption feature enables the router with highest priority to immediately become the active router. Priority is determined first by the priority value that you configure, and then by the IP address. In each case, a higher value is of greater priority.

When a higher-priority router preempts a lower-priority router, it sends a coup message. When a lower-priority active router receives a coup message or hello message from a higher-priority active router, it changes to the speak state and sends a resign message.

ICMP Redirect Messages

Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is a network layer Internet protocol that provides message packets to report errors and other information relevant to IP processing. ICMP provides many diagnostic functions and can send and redirect error packets to the host. When running HSRP, it is important to prevent hosts from discovering the interface (or real) MAC addresses of routers in the HSRP group. If a host is redirected by ICMP to the real MAC address of a router, and that router later fails, then packets from the host are lost.

ICMP redirect messages are automatically enabled on interfaces configured with HSRP. This functionality works by filtering outgoing ICMP redirect messages through HSRP, where the next-hop IP address may be changed to an HSRP virtual IP address.

To support ICMP redirects, redirect messages are filtered through HSRP, where the next-hop IP address is changed to an HSRP virtual address. When HSRP redirects are turned on, ICMP interfaces with HSRP do this filtering. HSRP keeps track of all HSRP routers by sending advertisements and maintaining a real IP address to virtual IP address mapping to perform the redirect filtering.

How to Implement HSRP on Cisco IOS XR Software

This section contains instructions for the following tasks:

Enabling HSRP

Configuring HSRP Group Attributes

Enabling HSRP Support for ICMP Redirect Messages

Enabling HSRP

The hsrp ipv4 command activates HSRP on the configured interface. If an IP address is specified, that address is used as the designated address for the Hot Standby group. If no IP address is specified, the virtual address is learned from the active router. For HSRP to elect a designated router, at least one router in the Hot Standby group must have been configured with, or learned, the designated address. Configuring the designated address on the active router always overrides a designated address that is currently in use.

or
commit

DETAILED STEPS

 
Command or Action
Purpose

Step 1 

configure

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2 

router hsrp

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router hsrp

Enables HSRP configuration mode.

Step 3 

interface type instance

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp)# interface TenGigE 0/2/0/1

Enables HSRP interface configuration mode on a specific interface.

Step 4 

hsrp [group-number] ipv4 [ip-address [secondary]]

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp 1 ipv4

Activates HSRP on the configured interface.

If an IP address is specified, that address is used as the designated address for the Hot Standby group. If no IP address is specified, the virtual address is learned from the active router.

Step 5 

hsrp [group-number] timers {hello-seconds | msec hello-milliseconds} {hold-seconds | msec hold-milliseconds}

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp 1 timers 100 200

(Optional) Configures the time between hello packets and the time before other routers declare the active Hot Standby or standby router to be down.

If you do not specify the group-number, the configuration applies to all HSRP groups on the router.

Nonactive routers learn timer values from the active router, unless millisecond timer values are being used. If millisecond timer values are being used, all routers must be configured with the millisecond timer values. This rule applies if either the hello time or the hold time is specified in milliseconds.

The timers configured on the active router always override any other timer settings. All routers in a Hot Standby group should use the same timer values. Normally, the hold time is greater than or equal to three times the hello time (holdtime > 3 * hellotime).

You must specify either the hello-seconds argument or the msec keyword and hello-milliseconds argument, depending on whether you want the hello time in seconds or milliseconds. You must also specify either the hold-seconds argument or msec keyword and hold-milliseconds argument, depending on whether you want the hold time in seconds or milliseconds.

Enter the no hsrp [group-number] timers command to restore the timers to their default values.

Step 6 

hsrp [group-number] priority priority
Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp priority 100

(Optional) Configures HSRP priority.

If you do not specify the group-number, the configuration applies to all HSRP groups on the router.

The assigned priority is used to help select the active and standby routers. Assuming that preemption is enabled, the router with the highest priority becomes the designated active router. In case of ties, the primary IP addresses are compared, and the higher IP address has priority.

The priority of the device can change dynamically if an interface is configured with the hsrp track command and another interface on the device goes down.

If preemption is not enabled using the hsrp [group-number] preempt command, the router may not become active even though it might have a higher priority than other HSRP routers.

To restore the default HSRP priority values, use the no hsrp command.

Step 7 

hsrp [group-number] track type instance 
[priority-decrement]
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp 
track TenGigE 0/3/0/1

(Optional) Configures an interface so that the Hot Standby priority changes on the basis of the availability of other interfaces.

If you do not specify the group-number, the configuration applies to all HSRP groups on the router.

When a tracked interface goes down, the Hot Standby priority decreases by 10. If an interface is not tracked, its state changes do not affect the Hot Standby priority. For each interface configured for Hot Standby, you can configure a separate list of interfaces to be tracked.

The optional priority-decrement argument specifies by how much to decrement the Hot Standby priority when a tracked interface goes down. When the tracked interface comes back up, the priority is incrementally increased by the same amount.

When multiple tracked interfaces are down and the priority-decrement argument has been configured, these configured priority decrements are cumulative. If tracked interfaces are down, but none of them were configured with priority decrements, the default decrement is 10 and it is cumulative.

The hsrp preempt command must be used in conjunction with this command on all routers in the group whenever the best available router should be used to forward packets. If the hsrp preempt command is not used, the active router stays active, regardless of the current priorities of the other HSRP routers.

To remove the tracking, use the no hsrp command.

Step 8 

hsrp [group-number] preempt [delay 
seconds]
Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp preempt

(Optional) Configures HSRP preemption and preemption delay.

If you do not specify a value for group-number, the configuration applies to all HSRP groups on the router.

When you configure preemption and preemption delay with the hsrp preempt command, the local router attempts to assume control as the active router when the local router has a Hot Standby priority higher than the current active router. If the hsrp preempt command is not configured, the local router assumes control as the active router only if it receives information indicating that no router is currently in the active state (acting as the designated router).

When a router first comes up, it does not have a complete routing table. If it is configured to preempt, it becomes the active router, yet it is unable to provide adequate routing services. This problem can be solved by configuring a delay before the preempting router actually preempts the currently active router.

The preempt delay seconds value does not apply if there is no router currently in the active state. In this case, the local router becomes active after the appropriate timeouts (see the hsrp timers command), regardless of the preempt delay seconds value.

To restore the default HSRP preemption and preemption delay values, use the no hsrp command.

Step 9 

hsrp [group-number] authentication string
Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp 1 authentication company1

(Optional) Configures an authentication string for the Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP).

If you do not specify a value for group-number, the configuration applies to all HSRP groups on the router.

The authentication string is sent unencrypted in all HSRP messages. The same authentication string must be configured on all routers and access servers on a LAN to ensure interoperation.

Authentication mismatch prevents a device from learning the designated Hot Standby IP address and the Hot Standby timer values from other routers configured with HSRP.

Authentication mismatch does not prevent protocol events such as one router taking over as the designated router.

To delete an authentication string, use the no hsrp command.

Step 10 

hsrp use-bia

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp use-bia

(Optional) Configures the HSRP to use the burned-in address of the interface as its virtual MAC address, instead of the preassigned MAC address or the functional address.

Enter the use-bia command on an interface when there are devices that reject Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) replies with source hardware addresses set to a functional address.

To restore the default virtual MAC address, use the no hsrp use-bia command.

Step 11 

hsrp [group-number] mac-address address

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp 5 mac-address 4000.1000.1060

(Optional) Specifies a virtual MAC address for the HSRP.

If you do not specify a value for the group-number argument, the configuration applies to all HSRP groups on the router.

We do not recommend this command, except for IBM networking environments in which first-hop redundancy is based on being able to use a virtual MAC address, and in which you cannot change the first-hop addresses in the PCs that are connected to an Ethernet switch.

HSRP is used to help end stations locate the first-hop gateway for IP routing. The end stations are configured with a default gateway. However, HSRP can provide first-hop redundancy for other protocols. Some protocols, such as Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN), use the MAC address to identify the first-hop for routing purposes. In this case, it is often necessary to specify the virtual MAC address; the virtual IP address is unimportant for these protocols. Use the hsrp mac-address command to specify the virtual MAC address.

The MAC address specified is used as the virtual MAC address when the router is active.

The hsrp mac-address command is intended for certain APPN configurations.

In an APPN network, an end node is typically configured with the MAC address of the adjacent network node. Use the hsrp mac-address command in the routers to set the virtual MAC address to the value used in the end nodes.

Enter the no hsrp [group-number] mac-address command to revert to the standard virtual MAC address (0000.0C07.ACn).

Step 12 

end

or

commit

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# end

or

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# commit

Saves configuration changes.

When you issue the end command, the system prompts you to commit changes:

Uncommitted changes found, commit them before 
exiting(yes/no/cancel)? 
[cancel]:

Entering yes saves configuration changes to the running configuration file, exits the configuration session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.

Entering no exits the configuration session and returns the router to EXEC mode without committing the configuration changes.

Entering cancel leaves the router in the current configuration session without exiting or committing the configuration changes.

Use the commit command to save the configuration changes to the running configuration file and remain within the configuration session.

Configuring the HSRP Activation Delay

The activation delay for HSRP is designed to delay the startup of the state machine when an interface comes up. This give the network time to settle and avoids unnecessary state changes early after the link comes up.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. configure

2. router hsrp

3. interface type instance

4. hsrp [group-number] ipv4 [ip-address [secondary]]

5. hsrp delay [minimum seconds] [reload seconds]

DETAILED STEPS

 
Command or Action
Purpose

Step 1 

configure

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2 

router hsrp

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router hsrp

Enables HSRP configuration mode.

Step 3 

interface type instance

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp)# interface TenGigE 0/2/0/1

Enables HSRP interface configuration mode on a specific interface.

Step 4 

hsrp [group-number] ipv4 [ip-address [secondary]]

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp 1 ipv4

Activates HSRP on the configured interface.

If an IP address is specified, that address is used as the designated address for the Hot Standby group. If no IP address is specified, the virtual address is learned from the active router.

Step 5 

hsrp delay [minimum seconds] [reload seconds]


Example:

RP/0/0/CPU0:(config-hsrp-if)#hsrp delay minimum 2 reload 10

Delays the startup of the state machine when an interface comes up, so that the network has time to settle and there are no unnecessary state changes early after the link comes up. The reload delay is the delay applied after the first interface up event. The minimum delay is the delay that is applied after any subsequent interface up event (if the interface flaps).

Uncommitted changes found, commit them before 
exiting(yes/no/cancel)? 
[cancel]:

Entering yes saves configuration changes to the running configuration file, exits the configuration session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.

Entering no exits the configuration session and returns the router to EXEC mode without committing the configuration changes.

Use the commit command to save the configuration changes to the running configuration file and remain within the configuration session.

Enabling HSRP Support for ICMP Redirect Messages

By default, HSRP filtering of ICMP redirect messages is enabled on routers running HSRP.

Activates HSRP on the configured interface.

If an IP address is specified, that address is used as the designated address for the Hot Standby group. If no IP address is specified, the virtual address is learned from the active router.

Step 5 

hsrp redirects [disable]

Example:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-hsrp-if)# hsrp redirects



Configures Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) redirect messages to be sent when the Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) is configured on an interface.

The hsrp redirects command can be configured on a per-interface basis. When HSRP is first configured on an interface, the setting for that interface inherits the global value. If ICMP redirects have been explicitly disabled on an interface, then the global command cannot reenable the functionality.

With the hsrp redirects command enabled, ICMP redirect messages are filtered by replacing the real IP address in the next-hop address of the redirect packet with a virtual IP address, if it is known to HSRP.

To revert to the default, which is that ICMP messages are enabled, use the no hsrp redirects command.

Step 6
