Opened: Apr 14, 2016

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

If the virtual address for a virtual server that uses a message router profile (SIPRouter, DiameterRouter, MessageRouter) uses a different traffic group than the router profile, after failover, the wrong device will respond to ARP requests.

Impact

Connection failover may not work as the wrong device will respond to ARP requests after failover.

Conditions

The virtual address for a virtual server containing a message router profile has a different traffic group selected than the router profile.

Workaround

Manually ensure the traffic group for all virtual addresses matches the router profile used by the virtual servers that use the virtual address.

Fix Information

None
