unsynchronised, the router or switch could receive a gratuitous ARP from a self-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

elected VRRP master when the router or switch was still the master. This caused

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the existing master to create an ARP entry that incorrectly redirected packets

This issue has been resolved. The router or switch no longer accepts gratuitous

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ARPs from other VRRP entities while it is still the Master.
