Hi ,
I am having issues with ARP broadcast from our network devices which has Failover virtual IP configured for 2 x physical NIC connection.
Our setup is 2 x DELL N3024F switch connect to 02 x DELL 6224F switch. Default VLAN 1.
a. DELL N3024F switch is not stacked, it has VRRP configured for L3 routing
b. DELL 6224F switch is stacked with port -channel Link Aggregation
c. Port Gi1/0/2 on DELL N3024F SW-01 connect (RJ45) to 1/g1 on DELL 6224F SW-01
d. Port Gi1/0/2 on DELL N3024F SW-02 connect (RJ45) to 2/g1 on DELL 6224F SW-02
Logging message received sample:
Nov xx 10:20:36 172.168.XX.XX-1 ARP[ipMapForwarding]: ipmap_arp_api.c(1149) 391233 %% Received ARP Reply on interface Vl1 with bad target IP address 255.255.255.255. Sender IP is 172.168.XX.XXX, sender MAC is 00:25:97:XX:XX:XX.
These messages flooded and caused DELL N3024F switch to disconnect interface Gi1/0/2 port from DELL 6224F switch. Everytime this happens to either DELL N3024F switch, I have to power reboot the affected switche to get the connection up again.
Am i missing some configuration not properly done for DELL N3224F switch?
DELL 6224F switch is not showing any errors for the same ARP broadcast, and most of the devices is connected to through it.
Thanks for your kind advice and support.
