VRRP MAC - received packet with own address as source address

Infrastructure & Networking Switches and Gateways Ethernet Switches

Hi

Two SN2010 switches with VRRP configured (FFR), seeing the following in the backup VRRP device syslog:

Feb 15 18:35:22 cpt-ter-rs2 kernel: [402332.444773] br0: received packet on swp16 with own address as source address (addr:00:00:5e:00:01:
01, vlan:20)

The VRRP MAC is on both switches, so I can understand the log message. Is this normal? Is there a better way of doing things?

Please open a support case so we can collect more details and look into this for you.

Depending on your specific scenario VRR might be required instead of VRRP.
