Is there any good way to handle VRRP between 2 CRS3x switches to handle load balancing? Each switches (CRS312-4C+8XG-RM) are connected to a CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS router .
VRRP is a layer 3 technology - it’s not meant for load balancing on L2, and in fact not at all for load-balancing, as only a single VRRP member can be a “master” owning the virtual IP. VRRP should ever only be running on routers (nodes acting as gateways), not on switches.
You are likely looking for something else than VRRP to do what you want to do - can you describe more in detail what are you looking to do?
Sorry fro some reason I don’t get any notification from this site. ANyway I was trying to balance the traffic between the 2 swicthes and simulate mLAG wich doesn’t exist. I am for now creating an active-backup bond on devices . The onlythong I am unsure right now is how to link correctly the 2 swictches. For now it’s a star topology :
ROUTER
/ \
SWITCH1 SWITCH2
But I am wondering if i can’t make the traffic shorter between vlan so ffor example the VLAN 300 which is only on SWITCH 2 would go directly to SWITCH1 without passing by the router
