Viewing global VRRP statistics only

Syntax:

show vrrp statistics global

show vrrp ipv6 statistics global

Displays the global VRRP statistics for the router:

VRRP Enabled [Yes/No]

Invalid VRID Pkts Rx: VRRP packets received for a VRID that is not configured on the specific VLAN of the VRRP router.

Checksum Error Pkts Rx: VRRP packets received with a bad checksum

Bad Version Pkts Rx: VRRP advertisement packets received with a version number other than 2 or 3.

Viewing statistics for all VRRP instances on the router

Syntax:

show vrrp [statistics]

show vrrp ipv6 statistics

Displays the following VRRP statistics:

Global VRRP statistics for the router

VRRP statistics for all VRs configured on the router:

State

Indicates whether the router is a backup or the current master of the VR.

Uptime

The amount of time the router has been up since the last reboot.

Virtual MAC Address

The virtual MAC address for the VR instance.

master's IP Address

The IP address used as the source IP address in the last advertisement packet received from the VR master. If this VR is the master, this is the primary IP address of the VR. If the VR is disabled, this value appears as 0.0.0.0 for IPv4, and 0:0:0:0:0:ffff:0:0 for IPv6.

Associated IP Address Count

Number of VIPs.

Advertise Packets Rx

The number of VRRP master advertisements the VR has received from other VRRP routers since the last reboot.

Zero Priority Tx

The number of VRRP advertisement packets received with the priority field set to 0 (zero.)

Bad Length Pkts

The number of VRRp packets received with missing fields of information.

Mismatched Interval Pkts

The number of VRRP packets received from other routers (since the last reboot) with an advertisement interval that is different from the interval configured on the current VR.

VRRP packets received with an interval mismatch are dropped.

Mismatched IP TTL Pkts

The number of VRRP packets received with the IP TTL field not set to 255. Such packets are dropped.

Near Failovers

Tracks the occurrence of "near failovers" on the backup VRRP routers. This makes visible any difficulties the VRRP routers are having receiving the "heartbeat" advertisement from the master router. A "near failover" is one that is within one missed VRRP advertisement packet of beginning the master determination process.

Become master

The number of times the VR has become the master since the last reboot.

Zero Priority Tx

The number of VRRP advertisement packets sent with the priority field set to 0 (zero.)

Bad Type Pkts

The number of VRRP packets received with packet type not equal to 1 (that is, not an advertisement packet.)

Mismatched Addr List Pkts

The number of VRRP packets received wherein the list of VIPs does not match the locally configured VIPs for a VR.

Mismatched Auth Type Pkts

The number of VRRP packets received with the authentication type not equal to 0 (zero, which is no authentication.)

NOTE: The commands show vrrp and show vrrp statistics result in the same output.

Note that

Example

Output for show vrrp command includes global and VR statistics

Viewing statistics for a specific VRRP instance

Syntax:

show vrrp vlan vid vrid 1-255 [statistics]

show vrrp ipv6 vlanvidvrid 1-255 statistics

Displays the VRRP statistics for a specific VR configured on a specific VLAN.

The actual statistics data per VR is the same as for the show vrrp [statistics] command.

Note that show vrrp vlan vid vrid 1 - 255 and show vrrp vlan vid vrid 1 - 255 statistics produce the same output.

Viewing the "near-failovers" statistic

The "near failovers" statistic tracks occurrences of near failovers on the backup VRRP routers. This makes visible any difficulties the VRRP routers are having receiving the "heartbeat" advertisement from the master router. (A "near failover" is one that is within one missed VRRP advertisement packet of beginning the master determination process.)

The show vrrp or show vrrp ipv6 statistics command displays this statistic.
