Hi
I have now tested this on ESXi and VirtualBox with a x86 and CHR (x86_64) image and in both these cases the virtual IP cant be pinged or connected to.
Below is the config script that I use on a clean install.
R1
/interface vrrp
add interface=ether2 name=vrrp1 priority=225
add interface=ether2 name=vrrp2 vrid=2
/ip address
add address=192.168.100.3/24 interface=ether2 network=192.168.100.0
add address=192.168.100.1 interface=vrrp1 network=192.168.100.1
add address=192.168.100.2 interface=vrrp2 network=192.168.100.2
/ip dhcp-client
add dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=ether1
/system identity
set name=LB1
R2
/interface vrrp
add interface=ether2 name=vrrp1
add interface=ether2 name=vrrp2 vrid=2 priority=225
/ip address
add address=192.168.100.4/24 interface=ether2 network=192.168.100.0
add address=192.168.100.1 interface=vrrp1 network=192.168.100.1
add address=192.168.100.2 interface=vrrp2 network=192.168.100.2
/ip dhcp-client
add dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=ether1
/system identity
set name=LB2
I need to get this working else I need to look at using another system.
